    Do You Tell People You Used To Be In A Cult?

    in Open

    Posted

    Hello everyone,

    It's been a few years of me being here at GS. I I actually started at Waydale, and that's where the healing started in my life.

    I used to tell people about my experience after I left in 92. Then, I stopped for several years talking about it. I realized how STRANGE I must have sounded by the astonished looks on their faces icon_confused.gif:confused:--> and vertually NO comments were made by them, just blank stares. icon_eek.gif Once in awhile I may share my past if it's fitting to the conversation. I have changed so much now , that it all appeares to be a scarey nightmere.

    I have no problem telling folks where I have come from. Perhaps it helps explain a little of the "insanity" that they see in me today, and can thusly, half-way understand my "drift"

    To mention my past is not always a "proud" thing, but I have no qualms about doing so. It is always spoken of as "been there, done that, and got the tee-shirt".

    Actually -- letting folks know about my past, helps break down barriers. They see instantly that I am not some "goody-two shoes" (whatever the **** _that_ means!

    I always mention past cult involvement, if it is pertinent to the conversaton.
