After WWASP i have no personality

[Anonymous]

I'd just like to hear from other survivors of WWASP programs. After my stay at a WWASP facility i feel like i have lost my personality, character, and humor. I feel like being in the WWASP environment 24/7 for almost a year was extremely damaging. Anyone else feel like this?

One more thing. It worries me to think that there are probably so many other WWASP survivors who feel like me, but dont let others know how they feel. At least thats how it is for me. I think parents would truly be surprised if they knew how many others there were who dont speak out. And if it weren't for boards like this (where you can remain anonymous, to shield your shame), the general public would know almost nothing about WWASP.

You have nothing to be ashamed of. What was done to you and all the others there is wrong. Those people are predators, as bad as any rapist.

If you want a chance to get some justice then you can sue them, there is certainly plenty of grounds to do it and you have some time, at least till you are 18 and probably till 21 or even later. There is also a class action suit in the works that you can join.

If you prefer to just get on with your life then that is fine too. Look on the bright side you have your whole life ahead of you and its almost certain that the worst part is over.  

Have fun, go to parties, dance, get laid, eat lots of ice cream, laugh, live, and learn so much you don't have any room left for the crap they drilled into you.  

If you feel the need to vent, do so, loudly and publicly. Every time someone like you speaks out, the wwasp leadership cringes.
