"Either way you're missing the point and asking us to change the whole purpose of our organization, to converse with mental health professionals so that we can work towards it not being so risky to see a therapist."

Two things wrong with that:

1) Mental health 'professionals" will just stick their DSM in our faces and stick us in some category which defines that we have a problem that requires constant monitoring by the bears and requiring us to camp out at trash dumps, chemical plants, or in the sewers. Furthermore...

2) Therapists can decide to report us if they want to regardless of what anybody tells them they should not do. So long as the legislation is unchanged, the rules remain the same: lock up anybody who says they're attracted to children.


Unless you have adequate legal representation. Sad but true. I'd share my legal info, but that's highly confidential because it was set up by my old boss (RIP) who was a RSO and knew how hard it was for us out there.

Again, it's like you don't understand where me and my guys have been, or understand that the real problem is not mental health, but with legislation. I'm not asking you to change your purpose, but just saying what we ALL have a problem with.
