Dianetics

kimMember

Hello,

I got given a leaflet today about a new film showing on Dianetics. I'd never heard of it before so I briefly 'googled it' (as you do nowadays). Not sure whether i'm being cynical or just plain naive, but from what I can gather it seems to be talking about past (usually negative) experiences over and over until you don't feel so emotionally connected with the event. It doesn't sound like a modern science at all to me. Is it not common knowledge that talking about things helps people to move on with their lives? Maybe putting a label on it means people feel more free to talk about difficulties they have had? Just wondering whether anyone else has heard of it, and what their opinions are?

Hi Kim

I don't know a lot about it but thought it was a bit cult like.
