Thanks GloriaG,
I still have my moments and am in counselling with an accredited psychologist which helps significantly. The information and support I gained from here has made me realise I can’t help him and that I need to protect myself. My psych is able to help me with the psychogical abuse ie the gaslighting and abandonment and deciphering things that happened, so the two have worked very well together in helping me.
On an almost daily basis I still identify where he applied landmark principals or concepts on me or other sectors of his life which directly impacted our relationship. I can recall the time he winced when I mentioned you don’t treat people whom you’ve known for 26 years like this. Lots of little things like that pop up which really confused me at the time. I can see now he has been indoctrinated since the forum in April, so April - August our relationship had become toxic and damaging to me. I feel quite used actually but I know that isn’t a reflection on me.
Education is definitely the key in recovering. I try to read a lot of the other threads to put bits and piece together if I can. It’s pretty horrible what Landmark (and othe groups) do to people. It seems Landmark induces/supports unconscious living and life is too short for that.
