Well, I still disagree with what Sparky said:

As all of us on RRI would wish to assist and comfort you, but without full and open disclosure of the "cult" you were victim to it is useless, except to merely comfort you temporarily.
Saying all of us is including everyone here and I for one do not believe that I need full and open disclosure of the cult someone is in before I can offer comfort .
I would also like to comment on something you said:

It's true,however, that unless you're ready to face shit, it won't do any good to expose it. For some it could be too unbearable. Being in denial isn't a bad thing until your strong enough to face the facts. Believe me. I've faced my facts of my past- head on, and at times I'd be crying like a baby, or screaming out the damn car window at the top of my lungs-angry at the f*** who controlled me so long. It's been a personal journey.
I may not be understanding you completely, but I know that lots of people myself included have faced up to the reality of there situation and are not in denial, but still would not feel comfortable giving intimate details here.
The point of my original post was to point out to Sparky that full disclosure of details may be important to him, but not to everyone. I can offer comfort and to support to people with out needing the details. I think sometimes people make blanket statements saying. "All of us here" when they cannot speak for anyone here but themselves.
It is early and I am still sleepy, so I want to be clear that I am not trying to attack what anyone says, just nicely asking that people don't speak for me. And giving my 2 cents on how hard it can be to open up to strangers in a forum.
Thanks for listening.
