Narcissistic Failures.

After I left CF my first phase of recovery was getting information. What was I involved in. A Cult. My first therapist helped me understand cults and narcissism. Most cult leaders would be diagnosed with Narcissistic Personality Disorder except for the fact Narcissistic people have such grandiose op...

Re: Cutting off families

Great question quest. I firstly will clarify my position in studying the bible. I am a sociologist and therefore do not view the bible literally. I read the bible in the context in which it was written: for example who wrote the book, who the book was intended for and what was the social context at ...

Re: Cutting off families

Having been diganosed with PTSD I could continue to face the flash backs and night mares unexpectantly or be led back through (into and out of) my experiences within Christian Fellowship. I was terrified of having to face the mem...

Guilt and Shame

I would like to discuss guilt and shame. There is lots of information out there and I encourage you do look into it for yourself.
