How can you raise yourself to be on the same page as society when you were neglected and locked away for 20 years?

It helps knowing you’re not the only one, IMO. Look up people who have left high-control communities (would have been called cults in decades past). People can come out of some pretty horrific backgrounds and with hard work, intention, and support, live good lives.
