I have a friend who endured conversion therapy through her family’s orthodox religious org and she said that when she finally escaped her family and first reached out to lgbt stuff online it like… fucking set her back so much and retraumatized her like, everything that they told her was true after all, and it set back her healing by months and months. I can’t fucking imagine it. Knowing her is one of the main reasons I can’t brush this shit off as “discourse” like. It has real effects.
