About psychiatrization of transsexuality II

I have already given my views on the psychiatric treatment of transsexualism in my post About psychiatrization "of transsexuality. But I am accused by someone anonymous , Not to speak properly with my condition:



Anonymous said ... I'm very disappointed with the description that you do on the causes of transsexuality in the media. This is absolutely not a mental illness that causes severe depression, thereby causing a gender dysphoria. I'll have my sexual reassignment in February, and Dr. Brassard has confirmed to me that the causes of transsexuality are genetic, neurobiological and neurochemical, and it is certainly not a choice. Everything happens during pregnancy! So why we go to pose as mentally ill?
In this case as queers are sick mental!
Know that mental illness is no longer part of the symptoms of transsexualism in France ... Anne-Marie



To answer this criticism, first it is interesting to note the title of this blog:

transsexual Each has its history and saw a different experience. Here's mine ...


Then it is indeed MY story and I'm not hiding behind anonymity safe. I mediated and I bear the weight, positive and negative. It is easy to have an opinion behind the assurance that our words will not be scrutinized the microscope and that no one can blame us for anything. If you are so courageous of your opinions, go to express yourself in the media and made the way you think legitimate extension. Regarding the psychiatric treatment of transsexuality, I'm not the one who says so. Psychiatrists, psychologists, sexologists and scientific members of WPATH have decided themselves. In fact, it's not that transsexuality is classified as a disease. Transsexuality is that the transitional period leading sex physiological origin, gender, destination, is more treatment. This is a serious disease is depression (Known as dysphoria) that results from the condition of not being in sync at the physiological level and mental level. This is quite possibly not the case for everyone, but it was mine. So to say that dysphoria is a condition in the media evacuates the widespread idea that transsexuality is a matter of choice or sexual frivolity because if it is a disease, it is obviously not a choice. Moreover, if this is not a disease, it is very possible that the government or medical insurance no longer cover the cost of operations required for a sex change, since it is not a disease that must be addressed. The word I use often and I find most appropriate is "condition," but not a lawyer specializing in medical law, I do not know the scope of the word, given the possible and necessary medicalization precisely the condition that allows sex change. The issue has many implications that are not easy to solve. Yes, homosexuality is not a disease and yes it has been. Homosexuality not a disease, so there is no treatment to cure it. What is not the case of dysphoria, as I just explained. Finally, I feel good about myself as I've never been, but I still remember the passing of my really painful dysphoria that prevented me from sleeping, made me cry constantly, induced me suicidal , prevented me from working properly and professionally and made me lose appetite. I'm cured of that and call it as you like, for me is a serious depression and severe depression is a disease. There ...

the way, if you make yourself operate by Dr. Brassard and if the government pays for this is that you got 2 letters and 2 diagnostics specialists gender dysphoria different. I like a big doubt that these letters are not written "Madame wants to change sex by what it is trying him and that his mother had a hormonal problem to the fetus at the 7th week of pregnancy." Moreover, there is much speculation about the causes and assumptions that you are probably the best advance. But there is a difference between cause and effect, between cause and result of the case, which is a disease. I'm curious to know if you get to operate without prior diagnosis and if the label of "sick" (what ho dirty word) is not registered under a technical medical jargon. Before you say anything, take a deep breath and analyzes the issue. Moreover, there is no shame in having a mental illness that physical traits.

My gender identity dysphoria, two years later

's about at this time of year, two years ago that began my gender identity dysphoria. That water under the bridge! This blog and its archives show. My everyday life reflected too. I imagined that I would be a leper and that I would spit on the rest of my life. This is very far from the case (except again with several members of my family, but still ...). To have shared my experience here in my original MySpace band (which are also from my first record in English) in the support group ATQ, with my various psychologists and with my friends and especially my wife, greatly helped me get through all these trials. I have also not changed physically. I'm much more open to differences than before. I still have tons of prejudice, but I see now and I am better able to fight them and make them shut up. I am also more conciliatory and I was told more sociable. I am more open to others too. Now I LOVE to shop and be pampered with treatments every woman. I am more flirtatious and now embarrassed to male attention. I do any more tinkering and I feel so relieved not having to "the guys" and trying to prove myself constantly. Am I simply, and I like it. I have still looks, but I do not see hardly least, I do more looking. Many things run now on my back, like a duck. However, I still make some adjustments. I have more strength and am unable to open a jar of cucumber. I I'm actually bought a PowerGrip Starfrit. A girl is doing! I also get used to my new body odors. Those who are too sensitive, do not read what follows. For example, the smell of my urine and I get tired very difficult to adapt to it. I also find it hard to live the stereotypical gender constraints that many people project me, in spite of themselves. In the kind of "a woman does not like it" or "we see the man in you." But hey, these are only minor irritants that may fade with time ...

My sex change, two months later

I feel like woman ever, but I also realize that I'm still in transition. The path is not completed (will he ever) and my body will still change under the effect of female hormones that no longer have to fight against the testosterone that is no longer in me. I still have that voice as male and painful facial hair removal sessions (Ouch) with whom I still call. But I feel happy. I still have pain (especially late in the day or when I'm tired) and Dr. Pierre Brassard (my surgeon sex change) said it could last several more months. These are species of ECT departing from the pubic area and come hit me in the head or stabbing muscle pain from vaginal muscles. My breasts are still in a growth phase, also send me pain signals, which combine with those of the breast augmentation surgery. Said like that, it might have looked terrible, but this is not the case. These pains are normal and as time goes by, the more they decline to go out eventually. But being a woman a little busy, I do certainly not give any chance for my body to recover and these remind me of pain signals to calm down a bit. My libido back quietly and I have not yet explored this new body, as would a teenager. For this too I have to wait at least another month. But it will come and I look forward to all the discoveries that I still have to experiment ...

But mentally, I feel really, but there really good. This is the best thing that ever happened to me, I finally feel myself and I enjoy life.

What's An Mpv On A Cbc

Speedciné

past year or so I hear about people who watch films (episodes of their favorite series to start) streaming. Maybe because I'm getting old, I remain faithful to the old download that allows me to watch the movie when I want once it is on my drive. Incidentally I happened to download some movies (700 MB) in less than half an hour ... not sure if streaming allows the same viewing comfort. The big argument

streaming is that there is nothing illegal for the user. Personally I find very little as a justification, it's really hypocritical. When I download a movie I'm not ashamed and I'm not trying to lie about the legality of the thing. I do not do it either by spirit of protest, but merely as a consumer lambda watered pub for years that ends up with a service "instant gratification" better than anything that exists on the official market.

If tomorrow everybody starts to leave the keys in his car and that people are not abusing the system, so I can, if necessary, drive in a car "fly" (At least without the proper papers) at the bottom of my home, so that I do, for example, buy one or take a taxi. Especially, since a car is available at the bottom of my home, the service is unbeatable. The

+ broadband consumer frenetic rhythms, the Kleenex generation, all this contributes to upsetting content publishers too long accustomed to firmly hold the valves in their catalog.

Basically do streaming change anything? Yes it tends to show the waste of energy chasing shoplifters over to the fight against terrorism for example. As shown

Chris Anderson in his last book, he must understand that the Internet economy implies accepting offer free content to reach as many people, including a minority will pay for content premium, ie in the case of a film, view it in better conditions than on a computer screen and depending on the speed data buffering and encoding quality pirate. Obviously
cons-intuitive for all old farts like me who were born well before the Internet exploded, but there it is, you have to listen, understand and adapt.

For now, the future of streaming seems to be related to the development of VOD offerings. Speedciné is a portal site of all that is no longer legal, but basically it offers the same service as any directory streams. The guarantee of quality (minimum) in addition to the supplier.
Little extra detail that I want, it highlights a class of free movies (in fact, fallen into the public domain, mostly) like publicdomaintorrents.com or archive.org so much more underground. The free is again present and it is he who gives credibility a service from the outset and the long term.

College Students Sprinkler Installation

Lack discretion of the police and gays

A little story that illustrates the masterful way that still unfortunately do GLBTQ community. Yesterday, during the parade, I sat on the hood of a convertible car identified as "honorary president". After the parade, a street corner of St-Hubert, I'm done masterfully apostrophize by a sergeant of police in the city of Montreal. We were still in the area of the parade and the sergeant started yelling at me "Hey toé, the parade is over, you're given on the highway, sitting in the chariot toé worse if I'm gonna put your belt you paste Ticket moe. Sent, sent, it was not fair to us ". It seems to me that we were still behind the barricades, well before St-Hubert, this policeman was certainly not yelling at me its message that was obviously unnecessary since the car was a few feet to stop and worry about what this story is that it does not come from a policeman not graded, but a sergeant , which appeared to be the boss of the gang that was under his orders. Well ... wicked frustrated.

Patron of the pride of Montreal, what a nice experience


Photo credit: Olivier Samson Arcand-photographer


was last night that ended my tenure Patron of Pride Celebrations Montréal . What an experience to remember! I must admit that I initially declined the honor. The image I had of this event is having the media present us well. That is to say, the image of two three dippy half naked and with feathers in the ass. But after having lunch with President Éric Pineault and Vice-President Jean-Sébastien Boudreault, I quickly realized that my perception was wrong. There is certainly of frivolity in the parade, but the celebrations are really much more than that. Moreover, the media speak only very rarely Community Day which allows people to GLBTQ community and other citizens to inquire information from dozens of community organizations, to live better or to understand the different facets of reality GLBTQ. There are also many cultural and artistic events gay and not gay, who spice up the celebrations. Thus, the Porn Flakes with Guy A. Lepage and his many guests were given a special show Friday night. But the celebrations of pride is also the moment that will advance the fight for GLBTQ rights and send a message of acceptance and the right to be different. There are still too many people who commit suicide, lose their families or their jobs because of the difficulty of living with an orientation or gender identity are different from the rest of the population. This is especially the message I wanted to convey during my term as president of honor and it is with pride that I am running. In addition, I discovered people of kindness, humor and pride to finally be himself, which still affects me. I myself have made many friends and I thank also the official spokesman of the event, Jasmin Roy , I got to know more personally and with whom I have bin fun to fulfill my mandate. If you read this and you are seeking to be the next or the next president (s) of honor of Pride celebrations in Montreal, do not hesitate to accept this honor ... My interview

Herbs Mastogenic Benefits For Women

message

recent weeks I used my twitter and Facebook accounts to keep my friends, clients and readers of developments in my condition and my transition. I know some people I'm close to me were shocked at this and they are derelict of my accounts. I also know that several others have come many more fill the ranks of my friends. But it is often those we lost that we grieve the most. For example, a status that appeared in Facebook after j'eu talked about the withdrawal of my form vaginal said something like "soon we will have a colonoscopy live on Facebook and twitter. I may be of bad taste, but I assume myself and I'm not bad jokes about what others may live. M'enfin

... Here's an email I just received from an acquaintance of mine (his name is removed to protect identity)


Hello Michelle (...)

You know, I put your finger on something while you lived your transformation in recent weeks and I wanted to thee know by email. But as we have busy lives we sometimes forget to say
other important things (...). I take the opportunity to tell you.

What touches me about yourself and your story is not only your courage and determination (I know, you've already said it was a matter of survival, not a choice) but the fact that you saw him openly. You could choose to avoid mentioning it on your blog and on Twitter that surrounds your change, but you've done transparently, with all that it brings. In a sense, it confronts people with their own prejudices and their own limitations. I realized that despite my openness and support that I have carried you in your step, I myself had some limitations to hear about your transformation toward what you really are: a woman.
I realized that even though we live in a relatively open society of mind, we collectively taboos and limits, which limits you face us, taboos that you help to break down. I know you, you just saw what you live for
full bloom, but I want you to know that all changes a bit with you too. Good day

You can put 2.0 on woman without a problem, it makes me happy.

We realize that gender issues is one of the last great taboos of the human condition in Western society: homosexuality is increasingly accepted by all, racism is fading, we talk less and less sexist (though feminism has yet to win all his battles) but transsexualism remains taboo ...

Would not want to, because it encourages thinking they are all natural conditions that individuals do not choose.

Good day
