Conversion Therapy was once believed to help change a person’s sexual orientation… sometimes called reparative therapy or even “praying the gay away.”

Samuel Brinton endured multiple forms of what some would call abuse… emotional and physical. He even received electric shock therapy in an effort to “convert” him into a heterosexual orientation.

He was told the government kills gay kids, all gay kids have AIDS and God no longer loved him. Brinton received so much abuse that to this day he still feels shocks when touched by another man.

Find out why you don’t hear much from those who survive conversion therapy, and why the phrase “I can’t change what I didn’t choose” is so true.
