He also was sure about the aliens were going to reveal his presence among us a year ago, and that all the people with power around the world already knew it -

I think you're short-sighted. Maybe Trump is very dumb and immature, but no human being who acquires that kind of power is immune to the enormous responsibility that comes with it, especially at a time like this. Trump wants to go down in history as someone important, not as a cheap swindler who made some scumbags rich. He'll probably crash the economy and get expelled or killed, or maybe his gambit will pay off. Who knows, but he certainly isn't immune to responsibility. -

Hehe that is the question, what happens after death? I know the answer, it's very obvious: the absolute is, exactly like now. -

I don't think so, there are dynamics with people that need to be resolved or they become embedded in your genes. -

The more I delve into the matter, the more I realize its complexity. The global economy is very difficult to understand. What I'm understanding is that for decades, the US has been increasing its economic dependence on the dollar as an international trade currency. This means that the US is the guarantor of a stable framework and, in return, charges a tax on every transaction made in the world. This has led to controversial situations, such as destroying Libya to prevent Gaddafi's initiative to establish the gold dirham as an oil currency, and generally periodically creating wars to tip the balance in its favor. The situation is becoming increasingly difficult for the US, and after COVID-19, a lot of dollars were printed to avoid a global recession. This is a very complex method that artificially creates economic stability when the reality is a decrease in consumption, something like a pyramid scheme. And it seems that now the pyramid scheme is going to explode in the US's face. The Biden administration's move was to provoke the war in Ukraine and bet on Russia's economic collapse. It didn't go well, although it was economically profitable; it undermined US authority. Now, Trump faces this situation by attempting something that seems incomprehensible: the purpose of taxing the world for being a US partner, in addition to forcing rearmament and, with it, purchases from its factories. Trump faces a very complicated scenario and does what he usually does: make impossible offers and then reach an advantageous agreement. Trump's actions cannot be judged until the results are known. The other options, the democrats one, giving Ukraine long-range missiles and escalating the war in Europe to the point of defeating Russia didn't seem very desirable. Everyone hates Trump now, but that was Blinken's path, and it's an extremely dangerous path.

Psychotherapy is not a scam, It's an aid to understanding that leads to openness, to being fully yourself, but you have to make that openness yourself. The psychologist won't do it for you; they're just a tool you use, and pay for, to help you with something you do. It's normal for the psychologist not to truly understand you, but that's positive because by trying to get them to understand you, you understand yourself. It's very difficult to truly understand someone; you have to be very deep, and psychologists are full of learned labels, of what's right and wrong, functional and dysfunctional. It's normal; that's how most people in the world are. Psychologists are a little more open-minded, but only a little. Then it's not necessary that the psychologist fully understands you, what's necessary is self understanding, and they could be very useful, also friends when you get used to talk without barriers -

@Adrian colby Was a great reading. The issue of sexuality is very profound. Everyone has their own path and process. Basic sexuality is very basic, and deep sexuality has the depth of life. Three years ago, while having sex, I felt it was a divine act, in which the entire universe made love and conceived the existence of a new being. It was like a psychedelic trip. I remember seeing colored lines converging in my partner's head, and when she had an orgasm, it was like a cosmic explosion. This had a strange effect. From that day on, I couldn't have sex as a game again. I broke off the relationship with that girl. I really liked her, but it seemed wrong to continue. Since then, I've had very little sex, and when I have, it's left me with a negative feeling. I used to be extremely sexual, and I still am, but it seems wrong to have sex unless it's to conceive a life. It's a problem because I don't plan on having children, but that's the way it is. I know that if I have sex with someone with whom there is no complete connection, it will seem like a nauseating act, when before I could do it with any random person. That's life, you can't choose what is going to happen next. -

Trump supporters have a lot in common with Trump's detractors: neither of them has a clue how the world works. They are governed by their emotions, which is supporting those who seem in tune with his simplified ideosyncrasy, in which the good guys are on one side and the bad guys on the other. They are absolutely certain of their forceful statements. Any of them, if given power, would fix this world and turn it into a utopian paradise in a moment. It's very simple: do good and avoid evil. The most interesting and astonishing thing is that this world, made up of people with the discernment of a chimpanzee, is advancing unstoppably. It's the miracle of cosmic intelligence. -

@Adrian colby Agreed, if when I was 12 years old the doctor had told me I was going to have a micro penis but with hormone treatment it would be normal, I wouldn't hesitate to take hormones. From a perspective of ignorance, you think: people should accept themselves as they are, as nature created them, but you could say the same about someone who is born blind and could see with an operation. We tend to view sexuality as something banal or taken for granted, and the reality is that it is an essential facet of human life that generates enormous amounts of energy, much of which is energy of suffering. It's a very complicated subject, so it's best to respect what is unknown. -

Reading this reminded me of a documentary I saw about Stalin. You saw the people of that time, and they really did seem stupid and crazy, acting without any sense, and the rise of a guy like Stalin, completely ruthless and very happy and proud of it. And all that madness follows a path, bordering on chaos but reaching order, billions of beings acting and creating butterfly effects that affect the entire group, which advances unstoppably in one direction, like a programmed automaton, always with enormous energy. -

Hawkings is very interesting, but then he starts saying very strange things, like the level of consciousness of football compared to basketball, or Hitler compared to Mussolini, in addition to muscle tests to determine someone's spiritual level. -

@Lyubov Most therapists are just as blocked as their patients, but they believe they aren't, like almost everyone else. People act robotically, without understanding themselves, but their programming includes believing they've made a lot of progress. If you're looking for a truly insightful therapist, open-minded and perceptive, flexible, and who deeply understands emotions and mechanics of the mind, it will be difficult to find. What is possible I guess is to find a therapist with a certain level of emotional intelligence who, with their feedback, can help you understand your dynamics. I've tried very few times, and when I have, it seemed to me an expensive scam. But I'm sure if you look, there will be people capable of doing the job. -

Rape is something normal, innate in humans. When you're 13 or 14, you would rape. Then you learn empathy, and they explain to you that it's horrible. They also threaten you with terrible consequences, and that disappears from your mind. In ancient times, rape was normal. People with power raped, all the soldiers on raids raped everyone, fathers raped their daughters, and it's still very common in underdeveloped places. It's simply that you're horny and want to fuck, and there's nothing else in the equation. If the equation includes a father with an axe or 15 years in prison, things change. Or if you've developed emotional empathy, you're no longer an ape. -

In my opinion, that's looking for a shortcut. In therapy, you won't realize your inner greatness or the unity of reality, but rather how the emotional dynamics of your family, which you've later transferred to your relationships with others and with yourself, are blocking you from being free to love yourself fully and others and be fearless. No 5MEO trip or meditation retreat, no matter how mystical, will free you if you don't understand the mechanisms of your emotional prison. Only you can understand that. It's not easy or natural. It's natural to persist in inherited emotional patterns. Truly changing them is within the reach of only a few; it's something very profound, you have to change your deep structure. Mostly think that they did, but they keep the same structures with a different manifestation -

I'm not talking about God and those stories, but about understanding your emotional reality. The psychologist may tell you that you have an insecure attachment because your parents etc, and you may think: Of course, that's it! But the reality is that this is a conceptual story. You have to see your emotional reality, feel it. It's like a vibration that originates based on innate patterns and develops through your experiences. It's not conceptual, it's real, it's beyond language. The whole therapy thing is for you to open the door to real understanding, beyond the concept. -
Breakingthewall replied to Anton Rogachevski's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
The usefulness of a therapist is that by trying to help them understand your reality, you understand it more clearly. What the therapist thinks is irrelevant; it's simply their opinion. But by talking about your emotional reality, clarity opens up. -

Probably you are right. The idea of treating a 12-year-old with hormones to block a natural process seems wrong to me by default, but who knows. -

### **1. Types of Treatments and Typical Ages:** #### **a) Puberty Blockers (GnRH Analogs):** - **What they are**: Medications that temporarily pause puberty (reversible upon discontinuation). - **Ages**: - **Netherlands** (pioneering protocol since the 1990s): Initiated around **Tanner Stage 2-3** (ages 9-12), after psychological evaluation. - **UK**: Until 2022, the *Tavistock Clinic* prescribed them starting at age 12, but the **Cass Review** (2022) recommended restricting their use to research settings. - **Sweden** and **Finland**: Since 2021–2023, limited to clinical trials or exceptional cases. - **Spain**, **France**, and **Germany**: Permitted from age 12 with parental consent and multidisciplinary assessments. #### **b) Cross-Sex Hormones (Testosterone/Estrogen):** - **What they are**: Hormones that induce secondary sex characteristics of the desired gender (partially irreversible). - **Ages**: - **Netherlands**: From **age 16**, after years on blockers and rigorous evaluation. - **UK**: According to the *National Health Service (NHS)*, only from **age 16** (with parental consent for minors). - **France** and **Spain**: Similar to the Netherlands (16+), though exceptional cases have reported starting at **14–15 years**. - **Sweden** and **Finland**: Since 2022–2023, restricted to **age 18+**, except in clinical trials. #### **c) Gender-Affirming Surgeries:** - **Ages**: Rarely performed on minors under **18** in Europe. Exceptions include mastectomies at 16–17 in the Netherlands with judicial approval. --- ### **2. Documented Cases and Controversies:** - **UK**: - The closure of the *Tavistock Clinic* (2023) following the **Cass Review** revealed that between 2011–2021, **2,383 minors** received puberty blockers, and **1,334** received cross-sex hormones (mostly over 16). Only a handful under 13 were prescribed blockers, linked to precocious puberty. - *Detransition* cases (e.g., **Keira Bell**) fueled criticism of inadequate evaluations. - **Sweden**: - The *Karolinska Hospital* (Stockholm) halted blockers and hormones for under-18s in 2021, except in trials, citing unstudied risks (e.g., bone health, psychological impact). - **Spain**: - Units like *Hospital Sant Pau* (Barcelona) report starting cross-sex hormones at **16+** after 2-year evaluations. The 2022 *Trans Law* allows access from **age 16 without parental consent**, though this remains contentious. --- ### **3. Key Regional Differences:** | **Country** | Puberty Blockers | Cross-Sex Hormones | Notes | |------------------|-----------------------------------------------|---------------------------------|----------------------------------------| | **Netherlands** | From ~9–12 years (Tanner 2–3) | ≥16 years | Pioneering protocol, now scrutinized for lack of long-term data. | | **UK** | Restricted to research (post-Cass Review) | ≥16 years (with restrictions) | NHS reviewing all prior cases. | | **Sweden** | Only in clinical trials (since 2021) | ≥18 years | Most conservative policy in Europe. | | **Spain** | ≥12 years with consent | ≥16 years | Trans Law (2023) sparks debate. | | **France** | ≥12–14 years with evaluation | ≥14–16 years (rare exceptions) | National Academy of Medicine urges caution (2022). | --- ### **4. Controversies and Current Trends:** - **Growing Scrutiny**: Countries like the **UK**, **Sweden**, **Finland**, and **France** have tightened policies, citing: - Lack of robust evidence on benefits vs. risks (e.g., 2023 **Nordic Council of Ethics** report). - Exponential rise in cases (e.g., UK saw a 1,000% increase over a decade). - Concerns about rushed diagnoses and detransition rates. - **WHO Stance**: In 2021, it declassified gender dysphoria as a mental illness but offers no specific guidelines for minors. -

What's crazy is giving sex-change hormone therapy to 12-year-olds, and it's done. There are parents who dress 6-year-olds as girls because they feel like girls. Let's see, when you're 6 years old, you don't know anything about that. They're creating people who base their emotional balance on their self-image. It's a symptom of a society centered on narcissism. The problem with narcissism is that it's synonymous with profound unhappiness. The welfare state seems beautiful from the outside, but from the inside, it's rotten, just like a narcissist. -

That idea that someone who has an easy time getting sex doesn't rape is wrong. Rapists rape because they like to rape, not because they can't get sex. People who can't get sex pay prostitutes, they don't rape. In fact, the profile of a rapist isn't that of an incel or a guy who isn't accepted by women, it's someone who is turned on by power. Many women are also turned on by being dominated by powerful men, which is why the extremely boring novel 50 Shades of Grey was so successful. -

It's not so simple. People with gender dysphoria truly hate their bodies and their gender and are obsessed with changing them. If you're obsessed with something, you do it. The case of bodybuilders is also extreme: crushing your body to weigh 125 kg of muscle, risking your health, working hours and hours in the gym just for more volume and definition. It's totally crazy, a sick obsession. But that's how the human mind works. Without obsessive people, humanity doesn't advance. I've been quite obsessive in the past and really wasn't very happy, but obsessions are satisfying; they allow you to escape your misery and move toward a golden goal. Then that goal maybe is nothing but the effort is something. -

I don't see suicide as an option. I see life as a path to deepen and ascend. Perhaps is not, but intuitively, that's what it seems. Any opportunity must be seized; you have to fight to the end. It can be hard, extremely hard: old age, paralysis, dependency, loneliness. It can really be difficult, but I think you can always find a path to greater openness, greater depth. In the end, you die, and you've done your job. If you commit suicide, it seems cowardly to me, unless it's to avoid being a burden. Although, who knows, perhaps in a situation of incurable illness, it's the only viable option. You never know what is going to happen next
