I’m truly sorry that? you were hurt in there. It sounds like the same kind of program I was in. It has been twenty years and I still have nightmares about Straight, Inc. I was physically harmed on an almost daily basis and the abuse to my psyche and my ability to trust other people or myself has been there since my first day in Straight, Inc. I hope the people that did this to us all wind up in prison where they should be.
I have the movie and have? watched it. I want to thank Nick Gaglia again for all your efforts in both films you have made. “Over the GW” was remarkably emotional and validating for me as a survivor. It made me aware that I did not go through all of that without anyone ever knowing what horrors it has done to me and my family. Thank you, Nick.
I survived Possibilities Unlimited in KY 1987. Is anybody suprised that these places got government money? There was something extremely perverted about it. I resisted- and got hurt. Would you believe that the people whohurt? me got jobs working for the government?
I? was in springfield from 84-86. I know quite a few people who were there when I was there are dead, suicide mostly. Some guy with secret service clearance in the white house during Bush was an ex gay male escort – ex bounty hunter for straight. I believe a story told about him got my friend who was in straight killed. It’s a long story with no happy ending.
i knoe the main character.?
I was in Straight, Inc. (Texas) from ’89? -’91.
Thank you for giving us a voice.
You remember? me? Melissa, tall skinny blonde lol
I was in Stoughton Straight in 89, cant say the nightmares ever completly disappeared.? Wonder what life would have been like had I NEVER SEEN THE LIES OF THAT HELL.
I was? in Stoughton from 89-90. When were you there?
I was in some place like this when I was around seventeen for only fifteen days, but still I have a lot of trauma though I was only there for a short time. Whats worse is I go to a university not too far? from the place now, and I get nervous sometimes when I am on school grounds. I have to remind myself constantly that the incident was over twelve years ago and that I’m safe on the college campus.
These people are now operating under a? different name in Calgary, Alberta. Same stuff.
Yes, you missed the point. See the film and comment? again.
KHK in Cincinnati from Aug.86 to May 88. My name is Tony. Thanks for making this. I am scarred in my mind from that experience for all? my life. I wish I had someone that understands that I could talk to. It has been a long time but it seems like just yesterday.
