Get over it? It is difficult to do when your internal hard drive was re-wired and you find it affecting your life at a very entrenched level for decades. In any event, when I first came to Fornits, it was the first time I ever discussed the situation. I wasn't looking to blame everything in life on the experience. I was looking to finally talk about something I suppressed but still dreamt about with people who understood. I was able to then process the experience and put it on the shelf. I don't have dreams anymore and I am at peace with how I view the industry. Now, far more important than whatever happened to me personally is that it still happens to others. I've seen various places shut down since I first started on the board, and this pleases me. However, there are still places operating using the same tactics - but more cleverly presented - as 30 years ago - thus, it is still relevant. So I'm over crying about my own experience, I certainly care about others' present confinement and mental hijacking. I do understand the frustration that some people use their former experience as a "get out of jail for free" card for dealing with life and responsibility. However, it does show that these programs are not the saviors of people.
