Why I Left Scientology
I
was a Scientologist for eight years. Although I identified as one I
didn’t really understand what actually being a Scientologist fully
entailed until after a couple of years of being heavily indoctrinated.
The reality of Scientology is deceptively hidden and cleverly disguised.
When I look at Scientology today, I have to forgive myself for not
seeing through the manipulation sooner. I’ve spent the last 13 years
keeping Scientology out of my life. It hasn’t been easy, but I’ve
realized that the religion is built on a foundation of violence. I’m
proud to add my voice to the many who, despite fear of retribution and
humiliation, have come forward to tell of our experiences. This is my
story.
The day I was taken to The Celebrity Centre in Los Angeles for the first time, I had no idea how much the visit would change and shape me into the person I am today. Or what I’d be like if the fates had something different in mind for me.
