I'm suddenly wondering... I have a friend who is trans, so I know that they have networks that allow for collaboration on what doctors and hospitals and other services will treat them with respect and such. I wonder if there might be or might eventually be something like that for heavier or gaining people? Maybe use the distance function on here and ask people directly, or post in these forums specifically about your area and doctors in case anyone knows any good ones to that end?

What are your experiences with health care? In France, there is only one health care (from the State). I know that in Germany, State health care can force somebody who drink too much alcohol (and becomes money because he can't work for example due to depression) to go to a long cure against alcoholism, and if he refuses, he doesn't get money anymore (I know somebody in this case who allowed his doctor to inform his health care that he had a problem with alcohol). I don't know what the French health care would do it knew that somebody is a gainer.

In the USA, health cares are private. I can imagine that being a gainer is a no go for health care companies. Maybe you can definitively lose the possibility to insure yourself? What happen in the USA, and in other countries?

Or maybe one can be sent to psychiatry?

In order to get a good treatment, the doctor should know that somebody is a gainer. But how dangerous is it?
