It's been about 2 years since I got out of that place and I still think about it every damn day. I remember the feelings I would wake up with everyday there... the worst feeling ever. I can't even describe it.. it was the most surreal feeling I've ever experienced. I felt like a caged animal.. constantly nervous and vulnerable. I was a total mess. Scared shitless of being dropped even when I knew I had done nothing "against the rules." It was ridiculous. I would almost have a heart attack waiting for my family rep and couselor to come to Group. This, in my opinion, IS emotional abuse. They knew damn well that I was scared and anxious and they loved it. They wanted me to be in a vulnerable frame of mind so they could twist around my thoughts into how they wanted me to think and act. I was only there for 4 months, thank god, but I went thru the Discovery and Focus seminars and I dont think I have EVER in my life been so scared. Literally shaking, holding back tears.. feeling completely out of control and confused. These people feed on fear and they need to be put in jail.

Hi Laura, welcome to the forums. There are many people here who can relate to what you've been thorugh at Cross Creek. And I agree with you completely-- these people should be put to jail.
This forum is rather new, by the way-- most of the WWASP related discussion is taking place ta the Teen Help Industry forum right now.

Yes, it is, you motherfucking WWASPie. That girl is telling the truth.

Welcome Laura.
Have you ever thought to yourself "God, if only we could have this conversation out in the more comonly accepted reality.... :exclaim: "? Well I did. And I want to take a moment to express my deep gratitude to our anon friend here for helping to fulfil one of my long held dreams. [sniff! :cry: ] I just can't tell you how much it means to me.
If that's appealing to you, well here's your chance! By all means, have at it. If not, just ignore the trolls and focus on what you like.
Either way, welcome.
Any policy that has Ted Byfield on the same side as many Rastafarians can fairly be said to have generated a consensus.
