Dear people, I am a 24 year old London based art student. For one of my projects I am looking into the psychological damages of brainwashing. Is there anyone london based, that has been through this or knows somebody who would be willing to talk to me about this. It just would be so much more helpful for me to hear experiences from individuals that have been mentally abused by cults, than to read it in articles or books. Please feel free to contact me by email, and ask more questions. Also feel free to emil me your experiences. Thanks Best regards, Anne |

Anne, my sister lives in London and her family is heavily involved in a Christian cult They call themselves as The new testament church. I was also invlved for 3 decades. I lost my daughter because they do not believe in health care. They claim themselves as the chosen 144,000. My sis ter has been suffering from severe arthritis. Her cult has been prayikng for years and nothing happened. However, a very humble preacher from Florida prayed for her over the phone and she was instantly healed. Hopefully, she will have second thoughts about being in this cult. |

Thank you 'inkorrekt' for sharing this information with me. I hope that your sister will make the best choice. If you have any more information, feel free to share it with me. To all of you: I have been looking into several cults, and a lot of these stories go quite extreme.'The End of The World Cult' documentary that was on tv last wednesday on channel 4 is a prefect descripitive of that what I try to explore. If any people are willing to meet me and discuss their experiences over a coffee or tea, that would be amazing. Of course I completely understand that a lot of you would rather stay anonymous. However, I am just an art student, interested in the psychological and interested in finding out how people got into the cult or sect, and when they noticed something was going to far. I hope I explain myself clearly enough, apologise, English is not my first language... please leave a message or mail me on anlaurharskamp@hotmail.com Best regards Anne |

Dear inkorrekt, Would you be able to send me an email to anlaurharskamp@hotmail.com and tell me about your cult experiences. You seem to know a lot about it and it would help me understand. As mentioned earlier, I am only an art student, interested in the psychological effects. But I always read, and like to meet people as this is so hugely inspiring for the creative process. I hope you will be willing to help me a bit more, best regards anne |
