How to heal after being radicalized?
I was radicalized 5 years ago by a Christian extremist group/cult. It was at my lowest point in life, and they told me they cared for me and took me in. I then began believing what they told me about life (the devil controls the world, TV is a sin, smartphones are sin, video games are sin, everything is sin!) I dropped all technology and started wearing long sleeves and stopped cussing to be pure. I was so radicalized that I would pray all day and what little I did leave my home I was in public “testifying and witnessing for Jesus” like I was taught. Years went by while I was like this and I finally realized “what the hell am I doing?” After realizing this, I started trying to be like my old self with my old values not influenced by the Bible. How do I get back to my old self? I’ve been away from the extremist people for close to two years but I still struggle with some of their radical views that was programmed inside of me. Help?

2 AnswersMotorcycles1 month agoGun law question ?
Kentucky man here, and long story short, my mom had me committed involuntarily to a mental institution years ago when I was a young man. I was not trying to harm myself or others, she was like best friends with he former judge and she(my mom) thought she was helping me because I was so depressed and riddled with anxiety. I didn’t want to go but she talked to her friend (the former judge) and they had me committed involuntarily against my will-therefore I think throwing away my second amendment right forever. Can someone please help?
2 AnswersLaw & Ethics2 months agoGun law question ?
So, long story short, to my knowledge federal law reads you can’t sale a gun to someone if they have ever been put in a mental institution. WHAT IF THEY CHOSE TO GO BECAUSE THEY WERE GOING THROUGH A HARD TIME AND NOT SUICIDAL NOR DAMGEROUS? That’s like “hey, my OCD and anxiety is bad and I wash my hands too much, maybe the hospital can help me.” You walk in, get admitted, stay two weeks, leave-and then your second amendment right is gone forever??

1 AnswerZoology2 months agoHow do I tell a girl I’m interested in her?
For starters, I’m a 25 year old man. There is a young woman probably early-mid 20’s that i think is very pretty and “my type.” I really have only spoken to her briefly (while she’s at work) when I am shopping. A brief bit about myself is I really don’t have a TRuE dating history, mostly because the girls I really liked I couldn’t bring myself to tell them. Anyway, I have no idea if she’s single, married, interested, whatever, but I’d like to know. How can I go about this? She’s a store stocker of groceries if that makes any difference. Thanks in advance.
