Gender Affirming Care for Children: Does it “Follow the Science?” with Psychiatric Nurse David Wayne Ep. 324
Manage episode 446668523 series 2780441
It’s such a heated issue—and people on each side believe those who disagree with them are abusing children.
In the last 10 years, we’ve witnessed an exponential increase in the number of kids who feel as if they’re the wrong sex.
Although Gender Dysphoria Disorder remains a psychiatric illness per the DSM-5-TR, it currently is viewed quite differently when compared to other mental conditions.
We don’t “affirm” Obsessive Compulsive Disorder or Bipolar or schizophrenia. We treat clients by providing coping mechanisms and helping them ground themselves in reality.
But, we don’t do this with Gender Dysphoria Disorder.
Why is this? Why do we abandon logic, reasoning, and science when addressing Gender Dysphoria?
As a psychiatric nurse, David Wayne finds this confusing, frustrating, and appalling—especially as it pertains to the US’s current approach to treating kids who decide they’re actually the opposite sex.
Join us for an insider’s take on what’s really going on with gender “affirming” care.
