You have no idea. I'm terrified of psychiatrists similarly to how I'm terrified of cops. I am disabled due to various mental conditions, and all it takes for my life to end is a psychiatrist deciding I'm not disabled anymore. Oh, and I'm autistic, which means people think I'm constantly lying because of my shit social skills.

And I narrowly risked that recently - in an LGBT clinic, with an LGBT psychiatrist, I expressed concerns with how my mental conditions affect my perception of my own gender. This started an avalanche of being accused of emotionally manipulating the psychiatrist and having my medical record state that I'm likely lying about being autistic and trying to defraud social security.

If I didn't have a therapist that would lay their career down for me, I'd be screwed. In my situation, the only difference between a psychiatrist and a cop with a gun is the immediacy of the judgement.

Oh, and don't talk to self-professed doctors that work in psych wards, like the person you responded to. Almost all of them are run like prisons, but without any form of legal procedure before someone gets thrown in one. You have no idea how horrific they can be. No one with a conscience works in those places - they would quit, just like the supposed "good cops".

You still need to police your language, unfortunately. Talking about suicide to your therapist can get you arrested.

Looks like lemmy.ml censors it.

typical lemmy.ml L

I get that some instances censor certain words, but would that also affect posts that are simply images that happen to show letters?

Seems very english-centered... are there no french speakers on lemmy ml?

Si je parle du retard qu'a eu mon train, je suis censuré ?

It's the same way with removed on lemmy.world

This is hilarious, thanks for sharing lol

Only if you were retarded

Damn he didn't know no need to call him a retard. ;)

Petard

Yeah, ret followed by ard. Just in case you're still having trouble and your instance filters it.

If it's the same one I'm thinking of, once he got out he raised an uproar over it because it was a clear sign people making decisions about who should be free or not in mental institutions weren't as good at it as they claimed to be and they challenged him to send others and they'd catch them this time.

A while later, they said, "See? We caught 3 of your guys!" But they hadn't sent any.

I mean at least I'm not one of those people who clutches my pearls cause I can't say the n word anymore.

But as a retarded fag I'm saying both
