I'll give you an example of my story. When I went to a conversion therapy camp, I saw somebody re-enact somebody else's rape in front of my eyes. I can't get the screams of that man that I mentioned in my testimony out of my head. It does cause depression. It does cause suicidal ideation. It's documented.
It's quite scary that we have to be in spaces like this in order to bring equity and justice to queer, trans and non-binary folks.
