Mental disorders are treated according to the guidelines stipulated by the APA.

The APA approved treatment for gender dysphoria is for the individual to receive medical transitional care under the supervision of a mental health provider with experience dealing with gender identity issues.


And wasn't it that same book by which we lobotomized people not too long ago for any number of conditions?

I have to say I'm very confused about what your question is... and I don't think it's just me. Legolas - 07/03/2017 12:04:27 AM 812 Views

Mind over Matter? Jeordam - 07/03/2017 09:06:53 PM 785 Views
Mind over body might've been more apt. I believe I did answer your question actually. Legolas - 07/03/2017 10:41:01 PM 891 Views

Well that would be the difference... Jeordam - 08/03/2017 08:54:59 PM 817 Views
So do tell me what in fact the purpose of our discussion is, then? Legolas - 08/03/2017 09:40:09 PM 757 Views
What can I possibly say? Jeordam - 09/03/2017 05:45:54 PM 759 Views
