In this essay, the author describes how he faced institutionalized homophobia during his psychiatric training, and how he later wrote a play inspired by the life of a gay psychiatrist. Despite Freud's supportive stance, homosexuality aroused the antipathy of American organized psychiatry and psychoanalysis and came to be listed as an illness in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM). Dr. John E. Fryer outed himself as "Dr. H Anonymous" at a 1972 meeting of the American Psychiatric Association, and the next year homosexuality was removed from the DSM. The 2014 play Doctor Anonymous offers a fictionalized account of this watershed moment in the history of the gay rights movement. The author discusses his own psychotherapeutic work with gay male patients, including those who had previously been treated with conversion therapy, and explores how the play mirrors his own life experience and the experience of his patients.
在这篇文章中,作者描述了他在精神科培训期间如何面对制度化的恐同现象,以及他后来如何创作了一部受一位同性恋精神科医生生活启发的戏剧。尽管弗洛伊德持支持态度,但同性恋引起了美国有组织的精神病学和精神分析学界的反感,并被列入《诊断与统计手册》(DSM)作为一种疾病。约翰·E·弗莱尔医生在1972年美国精神病学协会的一次会议上公开了自己是“匿名医生H”的身份,次年同性恋从DSM中被删除。2014年的戏剧《匿名医生》虚构了同性恋权利运动历史上这一具有分水岭意义的时刻。作者讨论了他自己与男同性恋患者的心理治疗工作,包括那些曾接受过转化疗法的患者,并探讨了这部戏剧如何反映他自己的生活经历以及他患者的经历。
