My Husband just doesn't get it

Somewhere back there someone said something about their sibling resenting the straight experience. mine sure did. Well at least we still talk with each other now -- some families have literally been torn apart thanks to straight. When I/we first found these boards, one hell of a lot of resentment came up on her part. How the program interfered with her life, school, the fucked-up sibling raps, the looming threat of potentially getting put into the program herself...all of this came to the surface all of a sudden, and there wasn't all that much understanding on her part about what it was to be brainwashed and how that person really wasn't the 'me' that we all used to know. I hope this helps. Since then there has been a bit more of an understanding, so maybe time heals all wounds eventually.

I think my brother is more unsympathetic toward my current hell about straight. He cant understand why my life has come to a screeching halt and even goes so far as to criticize my decision to take time out of my life to deal with my straight demons. he criticized how I  am dealing with the memories and he believes PTSD is baloney.

Although now that you mention it Anon....its possible he harbors resentments for his experience as a sibling. I wonder if he resents that I'm getting the attention and counseling I need now to cope with all the straight memories, not him. Damn anon...you made me think.....

Yes, how true indeed! She needs to apply the first step, etc. and work on herself before she can give the gift of awareness...

I will NOT have a seat! I will NOT apply my program! Straight's dogma is a load of bullshit!
Damn, I always wanted to say that! :razz:

I agree, I need to get it out, but I have developed a strong adversion to formal "group therapy."
