After thinking a certain way, and being told what to think based on strict policy for more than thirty years, learning to think for myself and make my own choices did not come easily, nor did it happen overnight. Now, more than two years after cutting ties with the church, I'm still trying to figure things out. This mindset, which had been drilled into me for decades, is not an easy thing to "unlearn." With practically every decision I made when I first left (and still even now), I had to ask myself Is that what you really think, or what a Scientologist would think?
