Thanks, Alex

For some reason, I was able to publish your comments but not reply to them, so I'll do it this way.

Thanks for your comments - for your encouragement, but mainly for sharing your own stories.

Very sad about your C/S. A fellow staff member had cancer, and I have no idea what became of her. I just know, at the time I left, she and her husband were pushing hard to get her up through the OT levels as quickly as possible. Quackery at its best.

Glad you bought a house. The gains from that will far outlast anything from Scientology!

The good that came of all of this for me is that my kids (now all grown) question everything - especially authority - and trust their gut. That they learned from my mistakes is enough!
