The fact that you actually believe we are able to diagnose "serotonin imbalance" or correct it in any kind of accurate way demonstrates exactly how befuddled you are by modern psychopharmacology.

I have a degree in this shit and I can promise you SSRIs are probably the drug out there with the weakest and least specific indication. There is no test for "serotonin imbalance"; it's a weak catchphrase thrown to laymen because it's the theorized mechanism of SSRI action. In reality, all we have is data that demonstrates it can help with forms of depression for a rather poorly understood reason.

Your doctor is desperately throwing shit at the wall at the point they dispense that kind of thing. On par with opiate dispensation. Don't let the argument from authority prevent you from thinking.

You don't have an imbalance of estrogen kid. You have an imbalance of coping mechanisms that you're trying to fill with a man's support and cock. For some reason though it seems you can't just be a fag to do this like a healthy person. I'm going with "internalized homophobia".

HRT... define psychoactive. It doesn't do anything a normal human body wouldn't do... if you think someone with serotonin imbalance should suffer because SSRI's are psychoactive please explain how restoring what should be there is altering ones state of mind in a way that is disruptive to the acquisition of knowledge?

SSRI's are not restoring what should be there. Its overkill and abuse because we don't know how else to address it at this time. Science isn't that far along. Most drugs outside of amphetamine are sledgehammers with unknown mechanisms of action.

I'm not a Scientologist, but Tom Cruise already hit the nail on the head with that one on Matt Lauer's show 10 years ago.

As a trans woman who has been making regular visits to the shrink and the psychiatrist since the age of 12 due to inherited depression and anxiety (and who is well aware of all her 'quirks' and how to take care of them), all I'm hearing from this man is that he was misdiagnosed. He never was transgender - he was suffering from a dissociative disorder rooted in childhood trauma. This one misdiagnosed man, as tragic as his story may be, is not somehow evidence that there aren't trans people who are actually transgender.

You are not a fucking journalist. You are not an experet. You do not know anything about transgender people because you aren't even able to read what several people have to say on a topic. This person likely was misdiagnosed and detransitioned because they didn't need the treatment. This does happen.

The other big reason people detransition is because of relationships. I.e. their in a normal husband wife relationship, one transitions, the other leaves, the other detransitions. This is a big problem for trans people who can't get their head right and again have underlying issues, like co-dependance on another person.

Barring people from transitioning, hurting them, oppressing them, ridiculing them, and paying for poor/legally grey doctors papers to demonize someone like me is not going to help these transitioning people. Or further the understanding of the human condition. Or further explain these issues for future people.

These are these the same people that say you shouldn't do anything because god forbid anything bad happened.

Thanks for throwing me under a bus to watch me squirm and die in the name of your psuedoscientific medicine.

I'll take what I can get from the most reliable sources available. Not some forumquesting guys.

Point out the post where I said trannies don't exist.

"most reliable source" is the very business that profits from your continued mistreatment. This is like telling off your backup homie when he tells you the car salesman is muddling a few facts.

Voltron.

Lose lose lose all around.

You really are late to the partay, you know that, right?
Yes, the GOP is really good at losing. Lose again and again, yes, 4yrs, 8yrs, lose lose lose while ignoring their actual voters. This "scorched earth" business, who says that? More of just another way for the GOP to lose much like the last, while they get pwnd by TRUMP.

This whole thing is not new at all, and very expected. It's much of how the Reps took the house and senate, and that had nothing to do with the GOP. Now it's time for the Reps to clean house all together, the actual civil war is the GOP establishment vs Rep constituents.

And Voltron is a movie thing now, eh? Was some cartoon a friend of mine liked in teh 80's... from transformers or whatever.

I'd go with this one rather than the transformers thing if trying to make social media news, more people will relate:

I never said it doesn't have good applications. I just wasn't going to let you call it something that its not. Too many Americans getting bullshitted. If it works and you need it, then it is what it is. I'm not in the business of tampering with whatever works for someone.

What I don't believe in is Big Pharm propaganda.
