  I can only do this communication face to face only, over a short period of time, no other way.

  Wondering about the possibility of one or two of the counsellor's and/or psychologists here offering their services towards the enabling provision of an online community toolbox here, on site, with Simon's permission, not just deprogramming and what to expect during the process, but also enabling advice that gives the individual free imformed choices and/or options to ease their passage onwards with their lives.

  Your Space ....

  Obiwan, I feel sure that whatever issues you have are also experienced by other folks here too. I can't imagine that as uniform as membership in the Borg is, that anyone could have a totally unique experience or issue. At least that's the way I feel about it.

  Why not air your issues and see what happens?

  WOW! Thanks for the offer Francois! Well here goes.My main issue is friends,I know that I have been so programmed by the borg that even after 12 years it's still hard for me not to be so critcal of others,by that I mean I'm so picky about who would make a good friend that they may as well be a jw.I could honestly say that since I've been df'd I can count on one hand who I could call a friend,it's not like I live in a cave I meet plenty of people in my day to day life,it's just hard not to look at those "faults" that a "wordly" person has.The other thing coinsides with making friends,trying to loosen up,I swear I know sometimes I'm so uptight that I could turn a piece of coal into a diamond,if you know what I mean.They both come from the borg and I have not found a way to fix it yet.Coming to this board has helped in that I know I'm not alone with these conflicts from the programming of the borg,and I've been reading coc and that really opens one's eyes.That's the long and short of it.
