Help: jumped on for seeking scientific proof of spiritual healing

of conditions or sometimes abuse that makes them cover up their true selves like a mask. So similar to how people "come out gay or transgender" when they feel safe to be themselves and quit hiding, there are some people who "come out heterosexual" when they finally come out. That's the best way I can explain it.

If they are "coming out heterosexual," then why does there need to be any spiritual healing involved? It sounds to me like they are responding to the social pressures of whoever has initiated the "healing," much the same way a Christian comes out as Muslim with a knife to his throat.

I think the only way a person can come out is if they're trying to live a life, and realize they are incompatible with it. If they actively seek "spiritual healing," I'd suspect they already know that their current lifestyle, whatever it is, is obsolete, and they need a moment of ritual to mark the official beginning of their new life. But that has nothing to do with a healer, or the healer's actions.
