Transgender Regret Coming Out of Closet: A case from Australia offers a more realistic view of the horrific realities of the medical procedures associated with the popular cause of “transgenderism.”

Ms. Jay Langadinos can offer Hollywood celebrities a more realistic view of the horrific realities of the medical procedures associated with the popular cause of “transgenderism.”

She, admittedly, got swept up with the romanticized image of “gender transitioning” and claims she was left “disfigured” and “disabled” having attempted to change from female to male, according to a lawsuit filed by Ms. Langadinos in Australia.

Her anger is directed at a medical system, and more specifically, her psychiatrist, Dr. Patrick Toohey, with whom she met with for an alarmingly short period of time -- one session. He was to set in motion the medical procedures she claims that were to eventually “ruin her life” without properly evaluating her case.

Integral to the lawsuit is Ms. Langadinos claim she was never “properly informed” of the complications related to hormone therapy and the extent of the trauma of surgeries that left her “disabled.” Her greatest regret involves surgical procedures concerning removal of her female organs: uterus, ovaries, and drastic breast reduction. She was 19 at the time she started the medical procedures.

Regretting the first and second surgery was one thing, but Langadinos was equally unprepared for the fallout from being prescribed massive doses of “cross sex” hormones. She claims the hormone therapy left her suffering from severe anxiety, depression and early menopause.

Dr. Toohey will be required to explain in court (if the case doesn’t settle) his reasoning for “approving” the transitioning process while failing to better understand the patient’s mental profile and failing to inform the patient of the possible irreversible harmful effects.

It became apparent that Langadinos was devastated by her teenage-decision to undergo the medical procedures saying in an interview: “Knowing that I can’t have children is absolutely devastating.”

You might not understand about cross hormones but by golly you surely knew you couldn’t have children before you made that decision

Lawsuits are what will hopefully kill the so-called “gender-transitioning” of minors at least.

Isn't self mutilation a recognized form of mental illness?

And yet, in the name of 'transgenderism', it is not.

To be honest, you don’t need a doctor to mislead you before you mislead yourself. ANYONE with a micron of sense should know that these “procedures” are going to disable perfectly working and non-diseased body parts. Who wouldn’t know this?

It amazes me how psychiatrists moved to recommending gender mutilation to patients with gender dysphoria. These are highly educated people yet some of them encourage minors to have their bodies mutilated with surgery. It’s stunning when you think about it.

Each and every one of these kids that is groomed into this insanity will have “insanity” in their future.
They will suicide themselves in massive numbers.
Those that survive will be sick, twisted, confused and the next generation of sociopathic killers, child molesters, mass-shooters and overall scourge of whats left of this society.

There will be a lot of human wreckage in the wake of this societal insanity before it ends, IF it ends. The propaganda is so strong that most regretters are bullied into remaining silent, or talked into seeing their "transition" as a great thing, despite the horror.

Oh good grief. Nothing could be more disgusting. I feel sorry for these people, I really do. Truly sick. I’ve seen this evil take hold in a family we know. Devastating to the family (which is a key feature of this evil) to say the least.

I know a couple whose son wants to transition. He’s a junior in college now. They are adamantly opposed, but all it took was 45 minutes with one doctor to give him the approval he desired. So he’s on the hormones now. They have asked him to stay in counseling before he does anything more drastic. The doctors have told them that by supplying the opposite hormones, they have their child for a few more years. So it’s a waiting game. It’s a horrible situation. He wasn’t like this in high school. He was a quiet kid, with some friends but not many. When he went to college, he found friendship in the transgender community. By then, he was legally an adult, and there’s absolutely nothing these heartbroken parents can do. They are helpless until their kid says he’s had enough.

If you think deeper, it's pretty much expected.

I would say over 90% of psychiatrists get into the field because of their own mental issues.

Maybe computer animations really do fry the circuits of little kids, making reality indistinguishable from talking vegetables and sarcastic animals.

This isn't just limited to trans-freak doctors, the entire medical industry has been corrupted. Most doctors will just throw an "antibiotic" at you if you present with a headache.

When I went in for my prostate issues, I wasn't really informed what a prostatectomy for cancer meant. I was certainly not informed that it would effectively make me sterile, that I would never have children naturally again, if I so desired. And yet, this was never flatly explained to me. Also not explained was that the removal of multiple lymph nodes around my central core may cause lymphedema, the accumulation of lymph in the extremities, causing swelling, going forward.

Classic blame shifting.

Not that the medical community does not bear some responsibility in this area. Any doctor worth his salt should never agree to self-mutilation surgery.

The addadictomy procedure typically does not have a success rate as high as the penectoctomy procedure. Of course, a penectomy can be successfully performed even by an amateur, on himself with almost any type of sharp object with no specialized training. But DIYers do have an increased chance of infection and do not have the ability to sue others as easily.

A lot of these parents are being threatened by school counselors that if they dont “support” and “affirm” these trans choices, their kids will commit suicide. It’s horrible. A strong, common sense parent that still has western beliefs and worldview, will stand up to the lies. But face it, many suburban lefty moms and dads live in fear and trust everything the government and “woke” leaders tell them.

True. I worked in a psychiatric hospital for years and many of our doctors had several screws missing.
