I’m wondering if this person isn’t so messed up she either imagined the whole business with the psychologist or the woman blinded herself. She is nuts. I can’t believe she stumbled onto a psychologist who was equally nuts to indulge her destructive delusion.

injections with body filler too.

I believe it. We have a whole slew of psychologists who believe it is better to acquiesce to the demands of a psychological disorder than to find a way for the person who is suffering to live a happy, normal life. And it goes back many decades.

Gender reassignment surgeries were first done at John Hopkins in the 1960s based upon the belief that it would be psychologically more effective to mutilate someone suffering from transgenderism than to treat them psychologically.

John Hopkins did a large longitudinal study on the patients who were treated both ways and they found that those who had gender reassignment surgeries were worse off psychologically than those who received psychological counseling and treatment. So John Hopkins did the ethical thing and stopped all surgeries.

But many psychologists still persist in the belief that we can adapt our bodies to a unstable mind in order to allow for happiness and fulfillment. But it isn’t a body issue. Never is. Never will be.

This woman will never be happy and fulfilled as a blind woman. She will feel the thrill of victory for a while, maybe a couple of years, but then she will develop more and more trouble adjusting to who she is.

She needed counseling and psychotherapy, not drops of drain cleaner in her eyes.
