Max - have you ever started to go to therapy for it? You really need to talk about it with a professional. Of course, finding the right one might take some trial and error. Investigate and look around, find someone who converses with you, not just does psychological tests. Find someone who specializes in sexual abuses cases.

Another thing, there is another site with former members who were born in the F. who you will find will be able to talk to you about their experiences such as yours. That is at Movingon.Org. I think there is a link to it at the chat boards home page if you click on chat boards above. Or just type it in in your browser.

In any event, do keep coming and talking, tell us your story. Can you give us some details, like where you were - who are your parents, etc?

We are very sorry this happened to you and want to help you in any way that we can. This should not have happened while it was on our watch and we are partially responsible. We are sorry for our part in it, even if it is the fact that we were tithing and supporting an organization that was harboring and even encouraging this type of abuse. Please let us know what we can do for you.
