Wow - I can't even come close to imagining what you went through. I am just in awe that you have come out of this with your faith in tact. You are a better person than me. I always knew there was something wrong with that letter, deep down, and it shocked me that everyone around me just read it and put it down, like nothing, while I sat there with my eyes like bugs waiting for someone to join me in the shock. It just shows what zombies everybody was to the rantings of Bergism.
If there is anything we or I can do for you, please let us know. I am in Calif. and have no resources, but at least if you ever want to visit for support, or if you want to just chat here on the boards, that's ok too. All these things are ok to be talked about. In fact, something I realized is that it's even necessary to talk them out, get them out, the anger, the frustration, the hurts. I heard one psychologist quote: If you don't deal with your pain, it will meet you later on. So, sooner or later, we have to confront it and deal with it, burying it never helped me - not that you have buried your pain - but just to let you know that it's good to talk it out and that's what this place here is for, that's why we're here.
Nice to get to know you,
Acheick
