Why don't I tender my name? Legal reasons. I was younger and very traumatized, and I signed what you refused to sign, Gary. I have also experienced postal "stalking" by the Hyde community. I have seen with my own eyes, in print, in official Hyde literature, words attributed to me that I never said, actions attributed to me that I never did, words that resulted in a bombardment of mail from former classmates. I do not trust these people one bit.

I am going to tell you why I don't give my name on this site. Hyde is a Cult. At Hyde they prod and manipulate you into telling your inner dark secrets in a way that is humiliating and degrading. Therefore Hyde knows a lot of very personal information about all who go there.
Many of us are people in good standing in the community and do not want the whole world to know our life stories. It is disturbing to think that Hyde might take some kind of revenge, but the idea would not surprise me. Although I can't speak for the other posters, this is why I personally do not give my name. Ya see, Hyde still has the power over us!!
I commend you for having more courage than me. You weren't there for that long according to your posts. I was, and therefore Hyde has a lot more "dirt" on me. Unfortunately I saw many times where "what goes on in the room, stays in the room" did not apply when it relates to Hyde, Joe Gauld, Duncan, Ken, Malcolm, Laura and any of the staff/cult members.
Boy, do I get it. My wife is uncomfortable as well, although she's fine with me doing my thing. I certainly understand, although I don't believe Hyde would ever divulge info given privately, within their confines, to the public. That would be very risky for them to do from a legal perspective. But you make a great deal of sense, and it's really a shame.
Thank you.

IBID... what a drag, but you must protect yourself.

MindRape Mill is a good word for them, Anne. I also want to elaborate a bit more for my fellow Hyders. In the last few weeks I have been perusing some of the other forums, trying to understand the connection and put things a bit more in perspective, also elsewhere on the internet. I haven't checked out Elan yet, and that may well be illuminating (aren't they both in Maine?). From what I've read so far, The Seed seems eerily similar. Regardless whether any unassailable connection can be made, an irrefutable core of Alcoholics Anonymous is clearly at the base of much of Hyde's ideology and practice. AA, as some of you will recall, was also at the heart of Synanom (aka "Sin Anon").

Risky, my foot.
In practical terms, there is no way my paltry unemployed status could possibly compete with the deep pockets of their insurance company. Even my slightly less paltry pockets when I was still employed can't match up.
Hyde has clearly demonstrated, again and again, a flagrant disregard for "legal prudence", even in very recent history. Look at how they handled the LD problem. Same way as in years gone by!
Moreover, it has been my PERSONAL EXPERIENCE that they will LIE THROUGH THEIR TEETH when cornered with illegalities on their part. If they can get away with it, they will. They absolutely do not want to pay any piper.
"TRUTH": only when convenient, or at someone's else's expense.
