英文简介:
Time to Think goes behind the headlines to reveal the truth about the NHS’s flagship gender service for children.
The Gender Identity Development Service (GIDS), based at the Tavistock and Portman Trust in North London, was set up initially to provide – for the most part – talking therapies to young people who were questioning their gender identity.
But in the last decade GIDS has referred more than a thousand children, some as young as nine years old, for medication to block their puberty.
In the same period, the number of referrals has exploded, increasing twenty-five fold, while the profile of the patients has changed, from largely pre-pubescent boys to mostly adolescent girls, who are often contending with other difficulties.
Why had the patients changed so dramatically? Were all these distressed young people actually best served by taking puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones? While some young people appeared to thrive after taking the blocker, many seemed to become worse.
Was there enough clinical evidence to justify such profound medical interventions in the lives of young people who had so much else to contend with? This urgent, scrupulous and dramatic book explains how, in the words of some former staff, GIDS has been the site of a serious medical scandal, in which ideological concerns took priority over clinical practice.
Award-winning journalist Hannah Barnes has had unprecedented access to thousands of pages of documents, including internal emails and unpublished reports, and over a hundred hours of personal testimony, to write a disturbing and gripping parable of our times.
中文简介:
《思考时间》深入头条新闻背后，揭露 NHS 旗舰儿童性别服务的真相。
性别认同发展服务（GIDS）位于伦敦北部的塔维斯托克和波特曼信托基金会，最初成立的目的主要是为质疑自己性别认同的年轻人提供谈话治疗。
但在过去十年中，GIDS 已转诊了 1000 多名儿童，其中一些年仅 9 岁，接受药物治疗以阻止他们进入青春期。
同一时期，转诊数量呈爆炸式增长，增加了二十五倍，而患者的情况也发生了变化，从主要是青春期前的男孩变为主要是青春期女孩，她们经常与其他困难作斗争。
为什么患者的变化如此之大？所有这些苦恼的年轻人真的通过服用青春期阻滞剂和跨性别激素得到最好的治疗吗？虽然一些年轻人在服用阻滞剂后似乎表现良好，但许多人的情况似乎变得更糟。
是否有足够的临床证据来证明对那些有那么多其他事情需要应对的年轻人的生活进行如此深刻的医疗干预是合理的？这本紧急、严谨和戏剧性的书解释了，用一些前工作人员的话说，GIDS 是如何成为严重医疗丑闻的场所，其中意识形态问题优先于临床实践。
屡获殊荣的记者汉娜·巴恩斯（Hannah Barnes）史无前例地查阅了数千页文件，包括内部电子邮件和未发表的报告，以及一百多个小时的个人证词，为我们这个时代写下了令人不安且扣人心弦的寓言。
