For some people, that gets played out through gender. But each case is unique and it requires really listening to the analysand and allowing him to make a relationship with his unconscious. Its difficult to aggregate all MTF transgenders into one psychological box as the reasons may be wholly different and unrelated that just appear as the same behavior -- which is why focusing on behavior is useless and, in my opinion, does more harm than good for a psyche.LoFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17790755800889443785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5477081438559630011.post-15288537674888153972009-04-30T23:46:00.000+10:002009-04-30T23:46:00.000+10:00Well, if other people can do better, Then answer f...Well, if other people can do better, Then answer first what your going to tell to those who are severely disturbed about being not in their own body.

And I'm really upset and disturbed about it" You just shrug it off and say, it's perfectly normal? Just because these classifications are useless? And you can't help them as a mental health professional?<br /><br />Then you wait until he comes back as a cadaver? Which has happened countless times?<br /><br />These broad useless classifications are not put in place to discriminate nor harm people. They are there so that people are guided. Although there are criteria for be followed and they are not used loosely just by looking at their clothing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5477081438559630011.post-68651934105807798542009-04-30T22:12:00.000+10:002009-04-30T22:12:00.000+10:00Psychologists do not save just for the heck of bei...Psychologists do not save just for the heck of being a messiah.

Psychologists who actually help people do not suffer from wounder-healer/messiah complexes that would characterize the analyst-analysand relationship as one of "saving."<br /><br />In my ignorant opinion, reducing behavior to these kinds of broad useless classifications does more harm to the psyche of the individual than good and only helps to inflate the messiah complex driving the psychologist on a rescue mission to save transgenders from themselves.LoFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17790755800889443785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5477081438559630011.post-19887782218254643622009-04-30T19:28:00.000+10:002009-04-30T19:28:00.000+10:00Gender identity disorder (GID) is the formal diagn...Gender identity disorder (GID) is the formal diagnosis used by psychologists and physicians to describe persons who experience significant gender dysphoria (discontent with the biological sex they were born with). It is a psychiatric classification and describes the attributes related to transsexuality, transgender identity, and transvestism. It is the diagnostic classification most commonly applied to transsexuals.<br /><br />Homosexuality is not a disorder. GID is.<br /><br />FYI, psychologists save people with GID by preventing them from committing suicide due to depression brought by GID.
