I was reading a post earlier and reference was made to seeing a psychologist in regard to CD'ing. I was struck by just how often folks describe visiting either a psychologist or a therapist to seek some form of understanding as to the whys and wherefores that make them want to CD.
Am I wrong in thinking that for those who do seek assistance that deep down they believe there's something wrong with them. An illness, sickness, a condition that requires correction? Is this a measure of just how much social pressure, stigma is still perceived by some such that they need assurance that what they're doing isn't something that's deeply wrong.
Please don't misunderstand, I've not criticising anyone who does take this path. I'm just curious as to why, given all the support and encouragement to be found here, some still remain full of self doubt. What is it given just how many examples there are on here of folks going out in the muggle world do some still harbour self doubts about themselves and their desire to dress.
Is it sometimes the case that the CD element is just one very tangible facet of a broader need to gain help?
