Manage episode 455134536 series 3242510
Friend, foe, or messy ex, what’s psychiatry’s role in queer lives? This week, we sit down with Dr. June Lam, psychiatrist and trans healthcare expert, to tackle mental health disparities, navigating family drama, unpacking shame, and surviving the holidays. Plus, we dive into the politics of medical transitions, debunk “fast-tracking” myths, and confront detransition discourse with science (and sass). Whether you’re queer, questioning, or just chronically anxious, this episode’s here to hold your glittery, overwhelmed hand.
