I got a diagnosis from my therapist...

"Dual-role transvestism" (Also another one, not relevant to this board)

Can someone translate? Seems to have to do with recurrent temporary feminine presentation in males, but what does it mean going forward?

>Ask your therapist dummy

He's out this week. Also, I would rather talk about my issues when I have sessions with him as opposed to endlessly digging into what the diagnoses mean.

    That's just like agp basically

    It means you don't have an innate feminine identity you just dress up every now and then

    Btw psychology is complete bullshit and you're wasting your money

        Yeah, you have a self attraction, an erotic target location error. People here will tell you the solution is to troon, it is not. It is to jerk off not thinking about yourself like that.

          I don't jerk off to myself like that. You are thinking of "fetishistic transvestism", which I was not diagnosed with. Dressing doesn't really do anything for me sexually.

          wrong, apparently dual-role transvestism specifically excludes “fetishistic transvestism” as a diagnosis:

          https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dual-role_transvestism

          it’s also outdated so your therapist prolly doesn’t know what they’re about op. if you’re trying to figure out if you’re trans you should see a clinician who actually has experience with trans/gnc patients.

            It's most likely just the closest thing that insurance would understand.

            Agp is trans as much as it pains me to say it. You have to try to cultivate a female identity and be mindful not to just be a perverted fetishist but you can be trans if you want just please don't be cringe.

            >You have to try to cultivate a female identity

            How do you think I'm trans if I don't already have a female identity?

            I mean it depends on your goals and your definition of trans. Ultimately identity politics and tribalism and the machinations of the people around you have to be stripped away from your life, and your bare naked self has to really decide what YOU yourself want for YOUR future. If wearing women's clothes and living and performing as your idea of a woman, aging as a transgender, etc will improve your quality of life, for all intents and purposes you should have access to HRT or whatever would make your life happier and healthier, regardless of whether I think you're actually transgender or not.

            In other words, I guess? That's your call. I'm not going to sit here and play this back and forth game where you scramble to think up every little moment in your life where you tell yourself you were a valid girl or w/e and revise every minute detail in order to appear more REAL. The only real thing here is: "will YOU (as in you right now, not anon but you wherever you are in the world) have a better life on HRT as whoever you want to be or not?" and I can't answer that for you, nor can anyone else, including therapists.

            >If wearing women's clothes and living and performing as your idea of a woman,

You're just wasting time and money because you lack the agency to make your own decision, it sucks that you're this much of an npc but if that's how you wanna live your life go ahead

            Dual-role transvestism is the formal diagnosis used by psychologists and physicians to describe people who wear clothes of the opposite sex to experience being the opposite sex temporarily, but don't have a sexual motive or want gender reassignment surgery. The International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10) list three diagnostic criteria for "Dual-role transvestism" (F64.1).[1][failed verification]

            In other words trans women who aren't "AGP" and don't have genital dysphoria. This is some outdated bullshit term lmao

            >Dual-role transvestism has been recommended for elimination from the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, 11th Revision (ICD-11), due to its lack of clinical relevance.[3] The ICD-11 for Mortality and Morbidity Statistics (Version: 04/2019) no longer categorises dual-role transvestism as a "mental disorder".

            Is there a single therapist who is suited to actually dealing with these things? The average /tttt/ NSFFWner will unironically have far more expertise and could give a far more accurate and appropriate diagnosis + counseling + a medical regimen. That's how bad the profession is.

        The female (fem1) filter doesn't change your face much. You wouldn't even need ffs to pass (I was picturing how a few minor alterations would make you look quite feminine). Estrogen will do even more than ffs, though (by changing fat distribution).

    The diagnosis code in the DSM-5 for gender dysphoria adults maps to the ICD-10 code for dual-role transvestism. It’s fricked, but if this came out of a computer it has nothing to do with you. If this came from the therapist’s mouth, he probably doesn’t need to be seeing you again.

            It's an ancient meme diagnosis. It's a subset of Gender identity disorders(F64) like Transexualism (F64.0) and not paraphilias (F65) like transvestic fetishism (F65.1) which would be actually comparable to AGP, which is a North American meme that doesn't exist in international classifications. Dual-role transvestism (F64.1) and transvestic fetishism (F65.1) is exclusionary. It explicitly states that you're not doing it for the coom. You can get hormones depending where you live with that diagnosis, but no surgeries. You'd have to pick a gender for that, you dumb enby.

            Every diagnosis for trans has been super vague because ultimately it's your decision how far you want to go. Some people are more happy being a girl in private others need to be in the open. Some can deal with body image issues and the compromises of transitioning better than others. There's no direct pathway what to do and what will make you happy.

      Very similar to what I was saying here.

      He's seen me wearing nail polish, and we've talked about me getting feminine clothing (at his own suggestion), so that's probably where that specific flavor of diagnosis came from.

      >>(By the way, you'd pass with some minor FFS).
      filter face still needs FFS
      >OK
      The female (fem1) filter doesn't change your face much. You wouldn't even need ffs to pass (I was picturing how a few minor alterations would make you look quite feminine). Estrogen will do even more than ffs, though (by changing fat distribution).

      >Really? How does it make you feel to call yourself a boy?

      It doesn't really feel like anything.

      >No. In this case it would mean more if a bunch of other people agreed that you were cis. They didn't (they said the opposite).
      >The opinion of the person themselves only matters in the case that it agrees with mine

      >The female (fem1) filter doesn't change your face much. You wouldn't even need ffs to pass (I was picturing how a few minor alterations would make you look quite feminine). Estrogen will do even more than ffs, though (by changing fat distribution).

      I'll take your word for it. Like I said before, I took great pains to make certain I didn't see it.

        i might be mixing you up with another anon sorry
        im mainly just curious how you were able to talk to a therapist and what you were able to talk about cos i emailed a therapist last month and have ignored the response ever since because i cant imagine talking about this stuff with anyone

          Know what you want to talk about. Write a script of what you want to say if it helps. I didn't really do anything special otherwise.

          You'll need to be able to get past your fear at least well enough to describe it if you want someone to help you.

          Heck you could just tell them that you are scared to talk about it at all, and they might be able to help you take that first step.

          just go. you've already told him, so you have no reason to deny it now.
          idk when I went it was only after I realized this problem I've had since childhood needed to be dealth with. it was time to become a woman. I also wore a skirt.

          On the plus side, if the diagnosis means nothing, then there is no evidence of any uncisness.

          if he thought you weren't trans he would've written OCD or anxiety or something (which you probably have too and in some ways it might make more sense to frame gender dysphoria as the anxiety etc. resulting from repression).
          the specifics are what doesn't matter not the fact that you're transgender.
          I've been diagnosed with every code from the ICD-9, ICD-10, DSM-IV, and DSM-5. they don't care. the ones that would care aren't good for you. they just click around until they find something that vaguely fits. sometimes they bother reading the insurance rules first but mostly not.

    It sure would be nice if diagnoses actually meant something. Though I guess that's why the psychologist doesn't actually bring it up.

    Psychiatrh is the science of evil. Basically he's a guy who knows fricking nothing other than how to demean and disempower people. The goal of psychiatry is to frick with you and get you to sit on a coach and apologize for being such a loser. This diagnosis basically means he's saying he thinks your a gay and you should keep it to yourself because you are gross.

    Have you ever seen psychiatry work? If you are neurotic it just makes you whine if you are psychotic it mentally castrates you with pills and incarcerates you. It's the police state that libs don't feel guilty about

      Kek, you caught me. Anxiety disorder not otherwise specified.

        the historical and current evils of psychiatry as a field do not necessarily apply to a given practitioner (though beware how formal training can shape their mind).
        okay you have anxiety too that doesn't mean you're not transgender.

          I don't believe anxiety impacts the question of transness, and he thinks I have some aspect of both, or why else would he give a diagnosis in that category?

            it doesn't take very long listening to you to realize you're a very anxious person who is also trans. obviously he came to the same conclusion.

            Or maybe no one thought I had anxiety until recently?

            you were (are) anxious about being trans so we discussed the transness.

      Still think it's just the closest thing insurance would understand.

    >altering sex characteristics isn't going to make you any happier.

    Small correction here. I want to be a girl, to include those characteristics, even though I am cis.

      >>I want to be a girl
      meaning you don't already identify as a girl innately.
      that's an admission that you want to be someone else, rather than yourself. meaning, you still identify as a male.

      i stand by my previous statement
      >altering sex characteristics isn't going to make you any happier

      if anything it'll make things worse.

        Is this some sort of reverse psychology angle where you try to get me to defend the transness I insist I don't have?

          because you secretly want it even though you won't admit it. everyone who ever had it had something that worked before it's just not good for a penis to be attached to a girl.

            dual role transvestites can sometimes benefit from transitioning, but overall that diagnosis is kinda dated. op says he does want to be a girl, the problem is he lacks the selfdetermination to fully identify as one. i dont think op is cis, but theres no way for us to make out if op is a fully binary trans woman. want my advice op? go into the hrt enby route. figure out how comfortable you are with your body and its changes and how a feminized body may make you feel. and when you are sure, start hormones. this is something only you can figure out, but in my opinion, you are somewhat dysphoric, and starting hormones as an enby sounds like a nice plan.

            You're putting a whole lot of stock into the diagnosis when it's probably mostly for the sake of insurance.
