What Readers Are Saying on Amazon With sensitivity and compassion, the author brings one through the self-misgivings that accompany the decision to sever affiliation with an organization that is no longer providing emotional, psychological and spiritual happiness. Having made her own way through the healing process and counseled others through the same journey, the author is able to concisely lay out a process for restoring one's faith in life and oneself such that wellness can be regained in the most expedient manner possible. I found it very helpful. -- Mary Goodyear
Very insightful, great book for parents, friends or anyone who is in a group and wondering if they are in a high demand group. -- Samuel Bradshaw
This is a wonderful handbook, and I only wish it had been available when I left a cult and struggled through much what the author describes on my own. I hope others find this when they need it, and that they use this guide as they listen to their own inner wisdom to build and rebuild their lives outside of a cult. -- Anni Gardner
