Why they stay
On the self-help path we may seek an authority, a teacher or a group to learn, heal or advance our awareness. It's important to value and pursue all areas of health and especially to recognize the role mental health plays in the cycle of abuse of both children and adults. It's also important to be aware that vulnerable, innocent, intelligent people can be fooled by the expert emotional manipulation of a teacher, counselor or loved one who claims to know the only truth. Training in Power is a feel good experience; its grand and uplifting promises capture a natural hope and longing in students, while its classic thought control techniques slowly train each mind into the founder's particular and exacting story of truth. Emotional manipulation to embed this complex system in someone's mind is thought control. Emotional punishment for resisting thought control is abuse. When it is embedded to extreme in a group, it is cult abuse.

Post Traumatic Stress - http://www.ncptsd.va.gov/ncmain/ncdocs/fact_shts/fs_commonreactions.html
- Just as the body can be traumatized, so can the psyche. Trauma refers to the wounding of your emotions, your spirit, your will to live, your beliefs about yourself and the world, your dignity and your sense of security. Assault on your psyche can be so great that your normal ways of thinking, feeling and the usual ways in which you once handled stress in the past, are now inadequate. Right now most PTSD or PTSS information sites define PTSD as a life threatening event, so there is a gap in information about psychological and emotional trauma as related to PTSD. This is beginning to change somewhat as it is discovered that our body's response to alarm of any kind results in PTSD symptoms. So it is worthwhile to examine levels of PTSD as related to any trauma you experienced or witnessed in tip.

Info-cult
- Over the last thirty years, there has been an increase in the number of religious, spiritual, political and psychological groups claiming to help people achieve their full potential. From Info-Cult's beginnings in 1980, we've been educating the public about cults, new religious movements and related phenomena. As the number of groups grows, Info-Cult also grows in its wealth of knowledge and resources.
Often individuals become worried when someone they care about is involved with a group that is unfamiliar to them. With over 25 years of experience, we can help. Info-Cult is the only group of its kind in Canada. We are a registered non-profit, charitable organization and we receive our funding from foundations, the Quebec government's Ministry of Health and Social Services, corporations, individuals and through our fees for services.
