Further criticism of the politicians for unfinished business came from the class of psychologists. And specifically by Ivan Igov, who in an interview for BNT, appealed to the Bulgarian elite in the parliament to focus on reading a textbook for the 10th grade and specifically on the lesson "Psychology of human sexuality".
His comment was provoked by the LGBT amendments adopted by the National Assembly. "I have never seen greater stupidity. There is no propaganda in school and there never has been! Show them these brochures! This is like propaganda for the Martians in Bulgaria. I will ask current and future MPs to open a textbook on "Psychology". for the 10th grade and to read the lesson written by me, "Psychology of human sexuality,", appealed the psychologist.
Igov also has a second request to the people's representatives: to deal with real problems in society. For example - the mental health of Bulgarians. "We don't have a law on psychology and psychotherapy, that means these professions are not regulated. We want the politicians to regulate the profession so that our mental health can be in place," he said.
"Unfortunately, we are still not well developed in terms of culture, psychotherapy and psychological counseling. Only a third of intelligent, well-educated people are willing to go to counseling or therapy. Not much is known about our profession. There are too many charlatans. If one came across one, one could be disappointed. Talking to a psychologist or psychotherapist is confusing with going to a psychiatrist," Ivan Igov pointed out.
