Goth,
I understand where you are coming from. The thing I don't understand is that these people that are telling everyone to "get over it", "move on" or any of the other lines they use forget that we all have lives out side of the internet-we all have our ups and downs which are not related to the Family. At least in my case and those that I know personally, we have moved on, but there are still issues that need working on, there are still the group think mentality that creeps up and bites us in the a*s. We all have our issues that we need to deal with and resolve.
What these poeple that come and tell us to "get over it" don't realise is that we are "over it", but we want justice. Anyone that has been mentally or physically abused has that right. They don't seem to be able to comprehend the fact that all we want is peace of mind (even if that comes from legal action). I don't understand the attempt at placing guilt trips on the victims (like the Family has done in SOOO many cases in the past), there is nothing wrong with wanting justice. Rape is rape. Abuse is abuse. It doesn't matter who the victim is. Their motives in seeking justice don't matter-what matters is that the justice is served.
I myself am learning to trust again. I am learning to let my emotional brick wall down. I can't go through life not caring or loving. I think that it's something that nearly everyone that's been mind f**cked deals with. I wish you the best of luck!
