I've been in Scientology since April of 1974 when I met my hsuband, Harry. I have been with him and Scientology ever since. We use Scientology in our marriage and in our lives and atrribute our successes and lasting marriage to it. Back in 1974 I was a very unstable, depressed, withdrawn individual. I figured anyone who paid any attention to me wanted to "use" me for something and really didn't care about me as an individual. I had the point of view that I couldn't possibly accomplish anything in my life and that I was worthless. Within three weeks of starting a Scientology communication course I felt totally different, I knew I was important enough to matter, I knew I could be happy, I knew other people cared about me and I felt confident. My father visited me at this time and he broke down in tears because it was the first time in six years that he saw me happy and stable. I have continued to use Scientology in my life and have continued to learn more and more about myself and others. The more knowledge I get the easier and more fun life gets!
