Medication like citalopram and seroquel for anxiety, onlazapine for schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders, and estrogen/testosterone for gender dysphoria.
Once again, if a person has a mental ailment, then yes, they should seek treatment. However, the line where treatment ends and self-maiming begins is a very distinct, thick line.
As soon as someone begins "treating" their delusions by causing permanent, real, physical harm to their bodies, they are no longer "treating" anything, simply maiming themselves.
Chemical imbalances in the brain that cause actual, mental illnesses have every need to be corrected chemically. However, these are incredibly distinct from the "transgender" "treatments", which distort and harm their body outside of biological and genetic norms.
To save you some work, here's the definition of "maim"
maim
[meym]
verb (used with object)
1.
to deprive of the use of some part of the body by wounding or the like; cripple:
The explosion maimed him for life.
2.
to impair; make essentially defective:
The essay was maimed by deletion of important paragraphs.
noun, Obsolete.
3.
a physical injury, especially a loss of a limb.
4.
an injury or defect; blemish; lack.
So, again, (say it with me now!) treating an illness is absolutely the correct thing to do, be it mental or physical, but to flood your body with hormones that cause real, permanent, crippling damage to their physical body is, in fact, maiming themselves, and is so far removed from actual medical care to be as realistic as anti-vaxxers or homeopathic idiocy.
If you can not see the vast difference between these aspects, then you have no business commenting on any of these issues, and, if you had any respect for people with actual problems, you would kindly excuse yourself from any further discussion.
Seeing how far off you are from actual, realistic points, however, I have no hope this will actually happen.
