ANOTHER STUDY PROVES THE EFFICIENCY AND SAFETY OF REPARATIVE THERAPY

As LGBT-inspired politicians pass laws banning therapeutic help for people experiencing unwanted homosexual attraction, another study has emerged in the United States that convincingly demonstrates that such people can be helped.

Abstract: This article presents a clinical case of a " bisexual " man and describes the conversion therapy he underwent using hypnotic suggestive programming, which proved highly effective.

Unprecedented efforts are currently underway to ban the use of conversion (reparative) therapy, which aims to change a person's sexual desire from homosexual to heterosexual. It is stigmatized and declared not only useless but also extremely harmful to the human body. Thus, on December 7, 2016, the Parliament of Malta unanimously passed a law banning the use of reparative therapy. This law provides for a fine or prison term for "changing, suppressing, or destroying a person's sexual orientation or gender identity" [7]. On June 5, 2020, the Bundesrat (the representative body of the German federal states) approved a law banning this therapy. Deutsche Welle reports that its implementation can be punishable by imprisonment for up to one year, while advertising and mediation can be punishable by a fine of up to 30 euros [1]. In the United States, only 18 states, Puerto Rico, and Washington, D.C., have banned conversion therapy for minors. Adults, however, can voluntarily participate in conversion therapy throughout the country [ 9] . Instagram and Facebook have announced that they will block all posts on these social networks that promote conversion therapy [8].

Claims that conversion therapy is not only ineffective but also always causes significant harm to the body are false. The corresponding arguments can be found in our articles [ 3 ; 4 ; 6 ]. Moreover, a number of our studies present the effective use of conversion therapy [ 2 ; 5 ].

Here is a case from our clinical practice, where conversion therapy was very successful in correcting the direction of sexual desire in a man with bisexual preferences.

Much of the following material was published in the research report "The Rhetoric of the Homosexual Movement in Light of Scientific Facts ." doi: 10.12731/978-5-907208-04-9 , ISBN 978-5-907208-04-9

Key findings

(1) There is a substantial base of empirical and clinical evidence that unwanted homosexual attraction can be effectively eliminated.
(2) An important condition for the effectiveness of reparative therapy is the patient's informed participation and desire to change.
(3) In many cases, homosexual attraction, which can occur during puberty, disappears without a trace at a more mature age.

Homosexuality is treatable. The effects of psychotherapy for homosexuality were associated with significant reductions in same-sex attraction (from 5,7 to 4,1 on the Kinsey scale), identification (from 4,8 to 3,6), and sexual activity. Over 42,7% of SOCE participants achieved at least partial remission of unwanted same-sex sexuality; complete remission was achieved by 14% for sexual attraction and identification, and by 26% for sexual behavior [*]. This is enough to have heterosexual attraction and form normal relationships.

In July 2020, John Blosnich of the LGBTQ+ Health Equity Center published another study on the “dangers” of conversion therapy. After surveying 1518 “non-transgender sexual minorities,” Blosnich’s team found that individuals who had undergone sexual orientation change (SOCE) reported higher rates of suicidal ideation and suicide attempts than those who had not.

But when another team of scientists, led by Christopher Rosick, analyzed data from “the most representative sample of sexual minorities to date,” the results were polar opposites. Comparing the scores of people who had undergone unsuccessful SOCE treatment with those who had not, there was no difference in the levels of psychological or social harm—the two groups were indistinguishable on every measure. In fact, SOCE was found to significantly reduce suicidality: adults who underwent SOCE after suicidal thoughts or plans were 17 to 25 times less likely to attempt suicide [**].

A guide to homosexuality self-therapy based on thirty years of therapeutic experience of an author who has worked with more than 300 homosexual clients.

I dedicate this book to women and men who are tormented by homosexual feelings, but do not want to live like gays and need constructive help and support.

Those who are forgotten, whose voice is hushed up, and who cannot find answers in our society, which recognizes the right to self-affirmation only for open gays.

Those who are discriminated against if they think or feel that the ideology of innate and immutable homosexuality is a sad lie, and this is not for them.
