Kinda late cause there's been a zillion pages since you posted this but kinda not, since it was only posted thus morning...So he’s a gay Pentecostal from bumfuck, Canada who got electroshock therapy for depression in his teens. Possibly/probably molested by his closeted gay uncle.
Usually evangelicals/fundamentalists believe that devout spirituality assures mental health and/or that mental illness indicates spiritual failure.
If he’s 30 he got electroshock in what, 2007? I thought they stopped doing that shit in the 70s. Was that paid for by the Canadian govt? What the fuck? That shit is not good for your brain and frankly it’s barbaric. Especially considering it didn’t stop him from trooning out.
Electroshock AND troonery are both extreme physical attempts to fix a mental problem. Is the extreme physical measures of dealing with mental health issues a Pentecostal thing?
Definitely want to know more about the parents and family. Methinks there’s more there than meets the eye. Maybe they even know the uncle molested him and are trying to make up for it in support.
edit: Armchair but maybe the reason he’s so jealous of his sister is because she didn’t get molested by their gay uncle.
But electroshock therapy is actually quite effective and still done. You're sedated so it's pain free now.
It only takes a few minutes and you're back in action soon after albeit with a potential of memory loss.
The psych ward I worked with had individuals who would be admitted yearly for a week or two, so they could undergo ECT as it controlled their really bad mental health issues better than any meds. They'd go, get zapped and be back within hours cheerful and ready to roll.
Anyway, that's my quick little sperg on ect. If anything, franny needed more sessions.
I still need to catch up on this thread. It exploded like crazy so I can't wait to see what Fran Fran did
