"The conversion treatment"

- CONTENT -
The conversion therapy is there including pseudoscientific techniques that claim to change sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression of people in the LGBT community to accommodate them with heterosexual and symptomatic norms.
The conversion therapy methods include treatments that contribute to psychological treatments, hypnosis, personal training, spiritual interventions, imaging, brain surgery, snoring in surgery or hormones, birth therapy such as self-appropriation or electrical blows, drugs that stimulate nausea and more.

There is a scientific consensus that conversion treatments are not effective in changing sexual or gender orientation and that they often cause significant psychological and long-term damage to patients. For decades, medicine and psychology experts have opposed conversion therapy because these may cause damage as extreme stress, anxiety, depression, alcoholism, drug addiction, life on the street, self-harm and suicide. Other possible damages include isolation and social withdrawal, difficulty in regulating intimate relationships and sex, anger and resentment towards parents. Youth children are particularly exposed to various risks in these treatments.

Medical bodies warn that the methods of conversion therapy are ineffective and may harm the patient. Medical, scientific and governmental organizations in the United States and the UK have expressed concern for conversion and injury that may be caused to the patient. In Israel, the Ministry of Health warned against receiving or offering conversion care. The United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights defines conversion treatments as non-ethical, as ineffective, and as a practice that may reach abuse and torture, and therefore recommends countries to prohibit the law of conversion therapy.

According to the American Psychological Association, “Although the consensus of the major health and mental health organizations is that heterosexuality and homosexuality as one are normal manifestations of human sexuality, efforts to change sexual orientation through therapy have been adopted by some political and religious organizations and are distributed to the public aggressively. However, these efforts are imbued with the potential to harm young people, as they present the view that the sexual orientation of LGBT is mental illness or mental disorder, and often show the inability to change sexual orientation as a personal and moral failure.

During the 21st century, many countries, especially in Europe and America, passed laws and regulations that prohibit conversion therapy.

A study from 2022 estimated that the direct economic damage to young LGBT treatments in the U.S. was $650 million a year. According to the study, the treatments also resulted in various damages such as mental stress, depression, alcoholism, drug addiction, and suicide, so the overall economic damage from conversion treatments in the United States was estimated at $9.2 billion annually.

Settings and terminology
In the research and professional literature, conversion therapy is not always called “treaties.” Some publications refer to them as sexual orientation change efforts and gender identity change. These are divided into “sexual change efforts.”
And, “I adopt a gender identity change.”
Social Orientation Change Efforts (SOCE - Sexual Orientation Change Efforts) features a range of techniques used in the field of mental health professionals and non-professional people to change sexual orientation,
Or some part of her. The term SOCE was developed in 2009 by the mission force of the American Psychological Association (APA) on appropriate therapeutic responses to sexual orientation, to describe these efforts, which can occur in a variety of forms and may be referred to in a variety of names. The term “sexual change efforts” deliberately refrained from using the word “treatment” (therapy)
