Kris and James,
I retract what I have told the two of you regarding my not being interested in involvement with anything to do with this forum. I must say that it has been most intersting in reading the thoughts of fellow inmates of Straight. Seeing others names out here, folks that I have often wondered about, some I have had contact with since leaving, it all has put me in a different mode of thinking. I have deeply tried for 18 years to put all of that time period behind me. I convinced myself that I was past it all, but the last two days of reading everyone's postings, and my own memories flooding my being, I am uncomfortably aware of my need to be here, with you all, and that I do indeed have much healing to do. Peace to you all, peace to me, and peace to the persons who made all of this possible,(yes, even the executive staffers). I cannot imagine that if they too were not brainwashed, they would never have allowed any of this to occur, after all,they had children in the program. And, who in their right minds would ever subject their children to such atrocities. So, I begin.... Cecile

Cecile,
  Glad you're here. Utah must be beautiful right about now. I wonder if Dana Sheridan is still in town. It must have been really hard for her to be in Straight because she had a little son!! I can't even imagine how horrible it was for her...Kris

Kris....
I must admit it feels very strange to be here, I have not done this much thinking about Straight in years. I keep thinking of more people I wonder about. Then in the middle of the nite, I got up and looked in an old photo album....there are pics of Rusty McDaniel, Elizabeth Perry, Heather Bennett, Abby Orr-Estes(she married one of the Estes guys, I think it was Mike, Jim Frazier and my Brother, Christy Frasier, Tracy Someone?,Alison? married Chris Ivie for a while,later divorced,oh my gosh!! I had not looked at that album in a lifetime. Feels mighty strange. I have those pics on a disk that I would be glad to send to you if you wanted. Cecile

Patti Johnson! Dang I had forgot her. She set me back off of 5th phase. One of those fishing questions, "What kind of shit have you pulled?" No right answer... dead meat. That I had seen one of the people I had grown up with while at home (druggie friend) was just the bonus plan. Got the 4th phase 7-day for that. Then I guess I didn't feel guilty enough for having a healthy conversation, so Rusty put me on a 3rd phase 14-day refresher. I managed to piss out a few tears and Rusty, who I still consider a good friend, let me slide. From my time on staff I really think he had the blessing to start me over, but didn't.

I'm still kind of pissed at Patti.

Yes Clay that is it...Jim Lowry.

Thankyou. He and his Mom were clearly freaked when I showed up at their door, but they were kind enough to let me stay for the night.

I wonder what happened to him.

If you know how to make contact with Rusty I'd love to know what his life is like today.

Nope, I haven't really tried looking and part of me thinks it isn't right to go looking either. I suspect I'll run in to him someday....

hey, I just found this site. after 18 years of trying to forget about Straight I figure it's not gonna happen so why not see if there is anyone else out there with the same problem. Anyway, I know those people and know what happened to one of them.So who are you? My name's Marc and I was in straight/Atlanta 84-85.I'd really like to talk to you. I've searched a few other sites but didn't find anyone from Austell Rd.

Hey Cecile, I remember you. You probally remember my sister, Kris, she was in at the same time. This is so weird and hard, remembering all these things. I'll write more later, I'm kinda shaken right now and feeling a little woosy. Maybe a little to much reality for one night.

HI Cram........care to say who you are? Kris? which one? There is a Kris on here who was and is a dear friend of mine....but, who is your sister if you dont mind me asking? I am glad that you made it out alive. I know what you mean about feeling overwhelmed by all of this, take it light and read it easy.
