Cult members often have no
idea they're in a cult
Although it can be obvious to those around them,
people in cults often don't realize what they have
become a part of.
It is found that most people enter a cult willingly,
without realizing the power it is bound to have
over them. It is noted that this is partly because
some people are more willing to see the
perceived benefits than they are the potential
dangers. Many people assume cults are only
religious, though, in truth, cults can also be
political groups, lifestyle groups, or business
groups.

Cult life can have a
dangerous and lasting
effect

emotional damage incurred during their time
spent in a cult. Psychologists who treat former

term effects being in a cult environment can
have on the human body.
It is observed that the "symptoms of temporal
lobe epilepsy are similar to those seen or
reported as resulted from the cult
conversation; increase irritability, loss of libido
or altered sexual interest, ritualism, compulsive
attention to detail, mystical states,
humorlessness and sobriety, heightened
paranoia.
