We speak with Diane Benscoter, the founder of Antidote -- a non-profit organization that seeks to address psychological manipulation. Diane shares her own personal story as a former cult member and explains how other individuals may also be 'deprogrammed' to leave cults and reject unfounded conspiracy theories. Diane also emphasizes the public health dimension of Antidote's efforts to better educate the wider public and inform public policymaking.

If you or someone you love is involved in a group or organization that might be using psychological manipulation, please visit Antidote (https://antidote.ngo/) for more information on how they can help.
