As noted, this is from 1991. I don't mean this as a criticism, I mean it to illustrate that what was identifiably trauma/mental illness related 30 years ago had been normalized and glamorized today. Around that time I was treating transgender patients. There was a definite movement away from acknowledging and treating trauma to validating the patients beliefs. Weird politics.

Yes, I noted because I figured the year it was published was relevant to point out a contrast with culture in Current Year.
Pedestalizing mental illness, identity, and feelings over facts and compassionate, practical methods is killing us.
Good thing none of that describes Biden..he clearly states that they all believe Truth over Facts. What a maroon.
True. The current approach is hardly compassionate. It seems predatory.
"There is no normal." I have heard this statement from many so called mental health professionals of that era.
