    Merry Christmas and Happy New Year KateWild! The fact that you ask yourself the question means that you are well along your way to healing. Fill your life with happy new memories to overcome those unhappy old memories.

    I also belive that Steve Hassan mentions in CCMC about recovering from cult phobias by re-living memories with your new feelings. If you feared Christmas as a child, remember those moments and feel how much happier you would have been if you could have celebrated them.

    Peace be with you and everyone, who you love,

    Robert

    The first step is to become aware of the manipulation. The next step is to stop going to the weekly brainwashing sessions. The rest just takes time. You have been going to meetings for years, the effect will take time to wear off, even though you know it's not the truth. The meetings, literature and illustrations were very effective cult mind control tools that the Watchtower uses very effectively use to reinforce their teachings.

    You only recently stopped going to the meetings, so give it time. When you see these illustrations, think about how ridiculous they are, but also how they deliberately produce to manipulate you on a subconscious level.

    When I look at them now, I feel very detached, I can't believe I ever thought they were events that could actually happen. They seem like some kind of fairy tale to me now.

    Band,

    Good idea, I am not really an art person. I would like to develop and interest in art now, you are right it will give me a wider range and the joy of art. I like photography very much, DM who posts here is very talented. His work is beautiful, and brings refreshment to my heart.

    Love Kate xx

    Oub,

    Thanks, I do feel like I am gettign better, but I also know what I am doing that is causing me harm. I want to flip a switch and be recovered from a cult, I know it takes time though and that's an unreasonable expectation.

    Love Kate xx

    This is so true, I have mised 8 in a row, I am still counting them in terms of individual meetings not a period of time yet, it's only 4 weeks. Today will be my 9th missed meeting in a row. I am just a babe at leaving aren't I?

    Love Kate xx

    OUTLAW,

    Thanks you have turned the image on it's head, you are giving it a new meaning now. If I go to a meeting again it will be like eating candy from the gutter.

    A man of few words, but you are so talented, you have real impact. You have helped me a lot OUTLAW keep up the good work

    love Kate xx
