Weird Cult Stuff

I'm genuinely like teared up I've never come across someone irl or online who grew up in a similar situation to me, it means so much to be able to relate to the posts about feeling like an alien when outside the cult environment but also feeling wrong within it. Like even the memes you make I can relate to. I can't really talk to my friends about it coz how tf do you even go about explaining cults without them jumping straight to "jonestown" so it means the WORLD to have found your blog ily 🥺😭💗💗💗

the horrible combo of religious + ritual abuse and csa.. like i still believe that im a horrible person and going to hell (and going to hell on a technicality, w/ the whole 'sex before marriage is a sin' and, well, enduring csa). i feel extra horrible when the only thing that brings me comfort is religious stuff (ie praying rosaries for hours on end, begging for forgiveness, etc). sorry if this is um. too much. but i needed to vent. love your blog <3

i had a really traumatic, painful childhood, and while it was very different from yours, it's fascinating to see someone who has coped so similarly to me. i guess little kids react pretty similarly to trauma. i feel seen and normal here.

Honestly the day I figured out I could purchase and eat frozen dinners? Life changing. Anyways your blog is amazing thank you for your service.

I don’t have religious trauma (but trauma nonetheless lol) but I find your blog really comforting anyway as some one who is still in a semi-traumatic environment. I hope this doesn’t make you make you uncomfortable I just wanted to say thank you

Hi, just wanted to say I love your blog and relate to it alot even though I have no idea if the church I was in would be considered a cult or if I'm just mkimg it up to be worse than it was.
