  it is tough when you have kids
  who are still suffering, feeling
  like they dont belong in either
  world, the real one or the b0rg

  i was already an adult
  when i was assimilated....
  but my kids were either
  preschool, toddler or
  yet to be born!!

  letting go is sometimes
  not an option, if there
  is a history of abuse
  and the wall of denial
  so carefully erected and
  protected by those
  wankers in power.....
  healing is a process
  not a procedure

  here's hoping for release
  for my beloved children,
  which is the key to mine

  It would be a lot easier to let go if I didn't have family still in. Maybe someday my family can get out and we can all heal. Until then, I have to live without some of them, and that's hard because I miss them.

  The hold the Borg has on ones integrity, feeling and total outlook on life is soooo extreme. Especially with one who has a mate still succumbed with the numbness it is especially hard to let go.

  Or to have family still trapped in the darkness of the cult makes it difficult to look past the it's reach.

  I hope everyone can find the breaking point.

  "You would think that after a year it would all be over with but I just cannot get the WT shit outta my head."

  It depends on how long you were in, how many of your immediate family were/are in, how deeply indoctrinated you were, and whether you were baptized. Even if you got out "cleanly," it will take quite a while to clear your mind of the indoctrination.

  Give it a bit more time. Remember, you're recovering from a long period of intense emotional abuse. If you think it's taking too long, therapy might be in order.

  Consider how many years they spent pouring garbage in your head. You're not going to get it all cleaned out in a day or a month or a year. Everyone recovers at a different rate. It usually takes at least several years.

  These clowns have carefully planted tendrils of their nonsense into every nook and cranny of your thought. Even if you rip most of it out by the roots, you will still be surprised, at least occasionally, to find one you missed. But eventually you can clean it all out, and replace it all with a solid grounding in reality.
