Scientology

If you are questioning the Church of Scientology -- or if you have already left and are trying to make sense of what happened -- this is a space that uses your language and takes your experience seriously. Whether you spent years on "the Bridge," served in the Sea Org under a billion-year contract, worked on staff at an org, or grew up in a Scientology family, the experience of leaving carries a weight that people outside the Church rarely understand. Disconnection means that people you love may be instructed to cut all contact with you. The label "Suppressive Person" can follow you. "Fair game" is not just a historical policy. If you are still inside and reading this, or if you have already been declared and are finding your footing, you are not alone. The Aftermath Foundation and similar organizations exist specifically to help people in your situation.
