Hello everyone, I have visited this site a few times and never made an introduction.
My life with scientology began 9 yrs ago. Though there were things i could not agree with i was always finding ways to make logic of it.
I never bothered reading or listening to anyones negative comments about the church. (because you're thought not to) And i always defended it. Also, I was afraid of speaking negative about it because I really thought that I was going to become sick or something horrible was going to happen to me. How stupid is that?
last week I decided to go on youtube and see what people had to say....
Now I'm here and CLEAR! And damn proud.
I hope that everyone would see the truth and except it and loved ones reconnected.
love you guys,
nj

norma jean! Glad you stopped in to introduce yourself.

I could relate to your intro. Good job having the courage to risk the horrid PTSness you thought you'd experience and brave the Internet. I remember that was a really hard step for me.

I never bothered reading or listening to anyones negative comments about the church. (because you're thought not to) And i always defended it. Also, I was afraid of speaking negative about it because I really thought that I was going to become sick or something horrible was going to happen to me. How stupid is that?

Not stupid at all. We were indoctrinated well. I was EXACTLY the same way. . . even after I was sure I didn't want to go back I was afraid to read the OTIII stuff -- thought I'd get pneumonia and die.

Glad you're here. . . it's a great place.

Yeah, same here, I wouldn't ever so much as THINK a bad thought towards scn, thinking like you, that I'd 'pull in' something bad immediately, ya know?

But after reading webistes, youtube, etc...Hubby and I LEFT *just* *like* *that*.

It literally pops ya out of it, when you 'wake up' ya know?

Look forward to hearing more of your story sometime

I can relate to that too. I muddled in it for 10 years before I found this board. Just reading here, and posting, has been more healing in 3 months than the whole prior 10 years were for me. It is so wonderful to be with people who understand, and to be able to joke around and laugh freely, and to express your own ideas without having to worry about hurting your eternity.
