I know this feeling way too well. I worked so hard to get back to 'the person I was before'.

Religious cults cause ptsd. I got a lot of abuse from the navigators, and prior to that maranatha campus ministries, and a lot of other people.
The Navs really beat me up emotionally, until I started to cut off my feelings, since I couldn't handle them. Way back the first time thru religion, I got back to my real self back then the first time by forcing myself to re-watch movies from a time prior to when everything happened, as well as books and visiting places that I associated with good feelings. It's also good to isolate and concentrate, like in meditation, on good things of any type that happened in the past, no matter how small. Keep focusing on them as in meditation, and look for volume over quality.
