She was a CHILD when she was indoctrinated. Her brain was shaped by these lies and stories. It takes years to undo that.
“But she got out, why is she acting like that?!?”
Because getting the body out is one thing, rewiring the brain is another
“Why is she acting so WEIRD?”
Because child emotional abuse & neglect just does that to people, ok?

in reply to Violinknitter • • •Anyway, the point of this mini-rant is that a lot of your neighbors and co-workers are in various high-control (especially thought-control!) groups right now, both formal and informal
And if you don’t learn at least a little bit about what an invisible prison that is, you are going to continue to be blindsided by those neighbors acting seemingly completely contrary to all sense
