    So lately my whole family knew im gay but in a nice way they are t rying to send me to a doctor to solve my problem a therapist
    Since im in a country like syria doctors here still think gay is a mental illnes
    I wonder if going to a therapist would do me any harm
    My sister cried begging me to go
    She said many people changed and got married normaly
    Just is it worth it and are the ex gay real or just some people who choosed to tie themselves to a stright marrige?
    Deep inside im not really willing to do any of this but my family is going crazy and im afraid they wont even let me finish my studies outside The country they are afraid that i will go do what ever i want and leave them and live the sinful life
    Wtf should i do
    :dry:

    Ex-gays are mostly people forced by an ignorant society into something they did not choose or want.

    Do what is best for YOU. Not anyone else.

    Do what will make you happy. I wouldn't let your family force you into going unless you have to. Maybe you can try explaining to them how you feel about going to those doctors and see how they react?

    I'm sorry to say that they're really trying to make you into someone who they deem acceptable, for their own comfort, and NOT for your betterment. Your family can't live your life for you. Be yourself, so that you can be happy, and whole. :slight_smile:

    I'm with Brad.
    I don't know if being gay is the sinful life. To lie, steal, cheat and murder are sins. I don't think that to love is a sin.
    Good luck.
