Excellent- More about Depth Psychology, Cult Survivors, and the Role of the Daimon: Oppression, Agency, and Authenticity
This book explores the possibilities of navigating out of and away from multiple levels of oppression through memoir-based research, examining how individuals raised in oppressive communities can emancipate themselves from controls and expectations. It suggests that depth psychologically oriented modes can be used to attune to the daimon and explore this notion through a study of memoirs of individuals who were raised in "cults." It will appeal to scholars and professionals in depth psychology and other psychological orientations, as well as individuals interested in more deeply understanding the psychological mechanisms involved in leaving a high-demand group or other oppressive situations.

This book delves into the potential for navigating multiple levels of oppression through memoir-based research. It explores how individuals raised in oppressive, high-demand communities, often referred to as "cults," can break free from the controls and expectations imposed on them from a young age and reclaim their sense of self. The author employs Jungian and post-Jungian depth psychology perspectives to investigate the psychological reclamation process. They draw upon the ancient Greek concept of "the daimon" and explore how individuals can regain agency and avoid excessive control over their thoughts, attention, and life intentions. The book suggests that depth psychologically oriented modes can be employed to facilitate this attunement and presents a study of memoirs of individuals who were raised in "cults" to illustrate this approach. The book proposes a more aligned approach to working with varying levels of psychological constraint and utilizes a phenomenological hermeneutic study, making it appealing to scholars and professionals in depth psychology and other psychological orientations, as well as individuals who are interested in gaining a deeper understanding of the psychological mechanisms involved in leaving a high-demand group or other oppressive situations.
