A Tip for Trauma Survivors: Write it Down!
This is a very interesting study and I think super relevant for my audience. Don’t just let the trauma sit inside you. Write it down– it doesn’t have to be “good,” you don’t even need to show it to anyone, you just need to get out.
About Me:
I’m Daniella Mestyanek Young, scholar of cults, extreme groups, and extremely bad leadership. These days, I’m also known as Knitting Cult Lady. I grew up in the Children of God cult (also known as the Family International), and served 2 tours of duty in the cult of the US army. I noticed that those two organizations had a lot in common and have been studying them and what we can learn about other cults– and how to protect ourselves from coercive control and abusive situations.
