lb_leeOkay, this has happened enough times that I feel like it might prove useful.
Since I finished the Cultiples series, ex-followers of Panopticon's groups have been coming forward to speak to me. There's been a decent few of them, and I thought it might be best for them to have a centralized place to share their stories, link-dump, and otherwise talk with each other, if they so desire. Anon comments are turned on, and also screened, so that none will appear unless I specifically say so; if you want your words unscreened, just say so, otherwise they will remain hidden. I will keep the comments moderated.
Panopticon has my blog staked out, and they may retaliate. Be aware.
I will also use this as a centralized post to note those folks who have already come forward and stated they're okay with being public:

Pigeon, Panopticon's former roommate's testimony.(And here's the thread where they said they were okay with it being public.) (EDIT: tumblr purged the post, so here is the archived version.)

For folks interested in learning more, I recommend Magaret Thaler Singer's book "Crazy Therapy." Margaret Singer was a cult authority who died in the '90s, and even THEN she managed to write a book about therapy used coercively, including age regression in hypnosis and the shitty fads in multi therapy at that time. It is well worth looking up, and libraries are decently likely to have it.
