"History shows that untreated mental distress does not remain static. It evolves. It deepens. It can manifest in many directions: depression, addiction, self-harm, rage. The overwhelming majority of people who struggle never become violent. But we cannot ignore the broader pattern that serious violence is almost exclusively male and that male distress is rising."....<---this speaks to me....

Yes, I understand the context here. I've lived it myself. I was first victimized by "the mental health system" over 50 years ago. Things have only gotten worse. But this is partly by design. Rich and powerful Globalist forces are behind the whole "LGBTQ/IA2Setc.,++" agenda. It's a global-scale PSY OP. This is provable FACT, and not simply my opinion. Too often, that "depression", that "rage", that "addiction", that "self-harm", in boys & men, is CAUSED BY the very same "mental health system" which claims to "help". No, a man can NOT become a woman, any more than a woman can become a man. Neither reality nor biology work that way. But the "trans agenda" claims, falsely, otherwise....

And, those problems of boys & men experiencing rage, depression, self-harm & addiction CAN BE much better and more effectively treated, addressed, and dealt with by stronger, healthier social relationships. I learned in A.A., recovering from alcoholism, that the best way to understand myself and others, was by looking at my SOCIAL RELATIONSHIPS. By making my focus of recovery on strengthening & healing my social relationships, by healing my relationship with myself, I finally found the answers I could not have found within the incompetent, crooked & corrupt & broken "mental health system".... A sick society created these problems, and only a healthier society can truly solve them....

Men have been vilified for years, decades, few strong men characters on tv, they were usually some idiot dufus. My son bought the whole "men are inherently evil" and transitioned to female. Men need purpose, they need outside time, they need a way to channel their natural energy, instead, we make them sit still in school and demonize their desire to be active and boisterous. The stage was set for this a long time ago. It absolutely sux, all the ruined potential. Very sad.

How as a parent do we help or even talk to our adult kids to help them see the light when they are so programmed and brainwashed and cut us off as the ones who are wrong. So frustrating as a parent to watch my son destroy himself.

Well, what should be the push back then? "I won't be correcting you, please don't correct me"?

Unless we have an established and accepted way of resisting ideologically-loaded language, they'll brow beat us every time.

Bill Bradford's avatar

"We must be careful not to let ideology replace clinical judgment."....from the article above....

Why NOT? We've let bogus "clinical judgement" replace common sense and human compassion....

Psychiatry is a fraudulent pseudoscience, a drug racket, and a social control mechanism. It's 21st Century Phrenology, with potent neurotoxins. Psychiatry has done, and continues to do, FAR MORE HARM than good....

Males have so much more than females are ever allowed to have. But it's not enough, never enough. For a brief period of time, females created separate community with our own spaces, organizations, bookstores, etc, and it's all been taken over by men. A horrific example is The National Center for Lesbian Rights, now given to "LGBTQ" etc. with includes the worst enemies of Lesbians and women.

I'm even seeing warnings that if men aren't coddled even more, they will become more dangerous. How about stopping prioritizing males and finally supporting females?

John Davies's avatar

But before that, the women took over every male only space. Colleges, military academies, social clubs, sports clubs, the list goes on and on. Other than possibly the Augusta Golf Club, that was the subject of dozens of New York Times articles decrying it.

Bill Bradford's avatar

Dude. Dude, listen, the women who you claim "took over" those "male only space(s)" were NOT men pretending to be women. They were NOT psychologically twisted men suffering and struggling with the mental illness known as "autogynephilia". They were natural-born women. You're making a false comparison....it's NOT the same thing....

John Davies's avatar

Where did i say they were?Im saying that is what opened the door to what we are seeing now. If women in the 1960s on couldn't be excluded from men only spaces then how can we make rules with consistency that exclude men from women only spaces?

Until now the thing keeping men from women only spaces was a complete disinterest by normal men. But now the crazy men have arrived.

Bill Bradford's avatar

John, I didn't say you said they were. But you clearly IMPLIED it.

And, when you say: "But now the crazy men have arrived.", you're proving my point. "Trans" is a global-scale, top-down driven PSY OP.

The entire TRUE PURPOSE of the "trans" agenda is to grease the skids to slide in TRANSHUMAN TECHNOCRACY. Please re-read both your comments, and mine. Then go read some Patrick Wood on "Technocracy", and some Jennifer Bilek on "Transhumanism/Transgender". It's a PSY OP, dude. So-called "women's liberation" was simply Nature restoring gender balance to society. "Trans" is another beast entirely....

John Davies's avatar

That's where we disagree. I think feminism (later waves) were the corrosion on society that allowed this to occur.

Bill Bradford's avatar

No problem. You have a right to be provably wrong, John....

Vanessa's avatar

That is true, in the effort to prove equality, men were not allowed their own space, boy scouts are gone. Women should have their own spaces too without interference from trans women.

Bill Bradford's avatar

The Boy Scouts were forced to drop the "Boy" from their name. WHY have the Girl Scouts not been forced to drop the "girl" from THEIR name? Seems like a serious lack of equity to me....

I saw the exact same clip. Thank you for putting into words my exact thoughts

Mental health by its nature will always be subjective. It is based on observable symptoms that evolve as society 'progresses.' Diagnostic categories are formed by 'expert' committees, not microscopes and lab tests. The mentally unwell sometimes participate in guidance. WPATH members (some trans and others keen on building industry) helped inform the DSM 'gender' diagnoses over its many iterations. So many things outside of what esteemed 'experts' know or understand are involved in the making of culture and the general patterns of a generation. Programs of industry interest fund 'research' in the attempt to build industry. (Robert Trivers mentioned in a comment is a case in point). $ speaks and academic research institutions participate. Harming people builds wealth.

I am of the belief that less reliance on industry and the system is best. Families are what make a society hum. The mental health industry has been injuring the family structure across many of its diagnostic categories and the prescriptions for 'treatment.'

Bill Bradford's avatar

Building on your comment, the DSM-5 is best seen as a catalog of billing codes. EVERYTHING in it was either invented or created. NOTHING in it was discovered. The difference between "invention/creation" & "discovery" is NOT merely semantic or trivial....Like "WPATH", psychiatry is a fraudulent pseudoscience, a drug racket, and a social control mechanism....

The World would be a better place if both psychiatry & WPATH simply disappeared....

Mothers Grim's avatar

I agree. Man's desire for/ or sense that categorization leads to good has ushered in massive harms. I too think we'd be better throwing away psychiatry's bible.

Bill Bradford's avatar

I know what you mean by "psychiatry's bible", and I go further. It's 100% FRAUD....

So-called "mental illnesses" are exactly as "real" as presents from Santa Claus, but NOT more real.... Yes, real people have real problems, and all of us suffer sometimes. Some of us suffer all the time. We are ALL human.... Either ALL of us have this mysterious "mental illness", or else NONE of us do....

This is so intelligently and thoughtfully written. You are spot on!!! part of the problem is medically and clinically people who present with an “identity “issue are rubber stamped and encouraged down the wrong path in a very hurried fashion with little or merelycursory time or attention given to “Counseling “or looking more in introspectively at trauma or root causes. This is so wrong! But when a person even suggest that we go slow here, they are labeled as a transphobia or some sort of hater. We need strong voices of a reason and compassion just like this article to come to the forefront.

Christa's avatar

Excellent point: "The issue is not compassion versus rejection. The issue is whether we are truly helping people, or simply validating them without addressing deeper roots." OR are affirming physicians and 'kind' society driving already fragile young men even further into mental illness?

Check out Sayer Ji's explosive piece this morning that chronicles how Jeffery Epstein (using banker money) paid researchers and surgeons to manufacture false trans research and ill-developed medical procedures. At least one researcher, Robert Trivers, said he went along because he needed the money.

The mental health violence against white boys and men you chronicled above has been manufactured by billionaire psychopaths.

The families here have been harmed by criminal sociopaths at the highest levels of society, via their professional prostitutes in medicine, education, and psychotherapy.

Also, check out Substack journalist, Jennifer Bilek, who has been naming names and researching the roots of transgender ideology and its barbaric "gender affirming care" model for many years. In fact, she links to Sayer Ji's article about Jeffrey Epstein.

Bilek is probably the most learned person in the world focusing on the corruption of science in favor of male fetishes and greed, including the creation of artificial uteruses so that men can get pregnant and the promotion of android facsimiles of human beings.

You will come away horrified but better informed. Somebody had to go down the rabbit hole and she's one of those people with the stomach to do it.

Very familiar. For some reason a few of us psychotherapists never went along with the propaganda research.
