At 33:57 he says “psychiatrists don't treat gender dysphoria,” again comparing doing so to conversion therapy. He says psychiatrists help with other mental health issues (anxiety, depression etc). He says dysphoria is treated with medicine, not talk therapy. 8/x
I have to say @jack_turban that for myself and the many other detransitioners I've spoken to who did experience regret, I wish my psychiatrist had treated my gender dysphoria. I wish my other issues had been addressed. I wish I'd been given therapy instead of hormones.

It's painfully evident from what you've said that you don't care about the wrong kinds of detransitoners – those of us who experienced transition regret - because you spend every opportunity you get trying to pretend we don't exist. Frankly, you're a disgrace to medicine. 10/10
To add: I didn't even scratch the surface of the utter nonsense that was spouted in this podcast, because this thread would be massive if I tried. Go listen for yourselves, if you can stomach it. Though my fellow detrans folk may have a hard time tolerating Turbans mental BS.
