We want to broaden the conversation of toxic church / controlling group recovery with the hashtag #igotout. Understanding and communicating the universality of all our experiences in these groups, regardless of type, through the telling of our stories, is a path towards healing.

It has happened. The floodgates are opened. You can now sue for military sexual assault. yahoo.com/news/army-colonel-… This is the biggest win we’ve had in a really long time, toward ending rape culture. This is the only win, ever, against the military for sexual assault.

This is the stuff infiltrating our government…fundamentalist beliefs will be forced on all through the mix of religion and politics if we don’t check it. #igotout

Is this how to retweet a thread? We at @igotout_org are more active on Instagram so if the whole thread doesn’t land on the feed, go to @CultExpert to read it. It might be that it’ll be the folks who identify as cult survivors who can reverse directions. #igotout
I am so frustrated and disappointed in mainstream media. I wish they would educate themselves and their people about social psychology and teach people things that are true and that will actually minimize violence instead amplifying it. Are they really ignorant about fundamentals

Please spread this campaign far & wide. @Misty_E_Griffin is doing really important work!
I left the Amish after reporting the bishop of my church for sexual assault. Here is a summary of my story in a speech at a press conference on Statute of Limitations Reform in PA. Kids need rights. Sign the Child Rights Act Petition! change.org/ChildRightsAct #VoteBlue

“What is a Cult?” The latest episode of WTF is on my Mind?! is now up on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and Youtube! I discuss my 25 characteristics and tactics of a cult. I cover Cult Leader dynamics, Narcissism, Utopian Ideologies, Spiritual Hogwash, Authoritarian Regimes, Brainwashing, DARVO, and Coercive Control. I cite the work of Robert Lifton, ICSA, Amy Morin, Janja Lalich, Dan Shaw, Rick Ross, and Steve Hassan. I’ve drawn from my experience in multiple cults (yeah… I know!) as well as conversations I’ve had with other survivors over the last five years. I hope you get as much out of listening to it as I did creating it! And please share it. Vigorously!! #cult #cults #igotout #narcissism #utopia #spiritual #brainwashing #darvo #coercivecontrol #authoritarian

It is easy to view cult members as gullible people - unlike oneself! But cult dynamics operate all around us, such as in toxic workplaces and #narcissisticabuse. #2023debuts #wildwildcountry #spiritualabuse #religiousabuse #cultrecovery #igotout #takebackyourlife #coercivecontrol

Meanwhile, back at the cult, dad resists the temptation to join again and merge with the safety and peace of the whole…#igotout
SPOILER. Watching #Picard talk to Jack in the Cube is like watching a parent trying to deprogram their brainwashed kid who’s in a cult. #startrek #borg #cult
