Recovery from Abusive Groups Page ix
Acknowledgments
It would be difficult to thank all the many people who have helped me over the
years to recover from this very painful and disorienting experience. Family,
friends, therapists, coworkers, CAN and AFF have helped me to heal and grow. I
am very grateful to them all.
I would like to extend a special thank you to the Boston FOCUS group. They
have been a wonderful example to me of how ex-cultists can grow and heal
through courage, determination, and compassion for one other. I have learned
so much from them. Without them, this handbook would still be on the back
burner.
Thank you, also, to all the many people who have made suggestions on how to
improve this handbook. You will find many of your suggestions in this second
edition.
Thank you all!
