Sarah :: When I first joined A-Better-Tomorrow with R-A-C-H there at the beginning of the cult (not sure when that was) I came in with a suitcase full of dark days and sufferings. I came out of it a better person and put my whole being into music with my project, Sarah Autumn, baring my soul, the scars of life and my dark days. Eventually, I wrote more positive material lately, and then R-A-C-H invited me to this cult, which brought back good memories of friends who's been there for me and with me to the end of my recovery process. If you were in ABT, you'll love being a part of this cult's family too. They help a lot and will make you feel safe, secure about yourselves and make you stronger than ever. Because when the day comes, the road to personal // mental // emotional, etc. salvation will end and you will begin. And when you leave, you'll always remember us as the "Lullaby" that told you to hold on because life is so worth living through this. Join the cult today! You won't regret it.

Val :: Espoir is a ray of light for those who have lost hope, or was close to it. This is a place when you can find a way to move on, talk and make friends with other members. They will listen to you and try to help. All of us have gone through situations that seemed hopeless at some point. This cult is reaching out for us to remind us - there is hope, and you are not alone. Espoir offers support and advice on many subjects. This cult serves a safe and comfortable environment to ask for advice, tell your story and speak your mind. No matter who you are, you are accepted, only requirement is to be nice to others. I am proud to be around this beautiful, wise, brave people who make the world better - the Espoir members.

Lindsay :: This has to be one of my favorite support cults. I have been in others and well, I don't know how to explain, didn't feel as helpful as this cult does. I've noticed you post in the Advice thread and you receive an answer of help within the same day. I absolutely love this cult to itty biity bits.

Emily :: I know the activity hasn't been up lately but I really do enjoy this cult. I'm picky about the cults I join and I feel like this cult has a bunch of friendly, very nice and sweet people. I really hope activity picks up because I'd love to talk to people who can relate to me. Espoir is one of my favorite cults, I'll never leave.

Katy :: I am part of many support groups and it is Espoir that I rely on most, I've posted some of the most intimate thoughts here and I've never been judged, mocked or felt isolated by anyone, if anything I have received endless support, love and warmth, The people of Espoir are strong, beautiful, honest, funny, charismatic, patient, gentle human beings and I adore being part of this cult even if I can't make as much of an effort as I'd like to. Thank you so much for all your support.. I hope I can return the wonderful advice you've given me.

Claire :: Espoir is a place where I feel I can come and talk to anyone about how I feel and that they will not judge or laugh. It is such a fantastic cult and I am very proud to be a member (:

Krysta :: Whenever I first joined Espoir, I was kind of quiet and didn't really want to talk to any of the members. Granted I did leave the cult for a time being, but I did come back because of how welcoming the members are, and how helpful they became. This isn't just a normal cult, instead it's almost like a family.

Rose :: For me Espoir is not just a cult but a family where you can share your problems with your fellow members. I have not been active in this cult for the reason that I'm always on mobile, but what I've seen in every post of others here, Espoir knows how to take care of their members. I LOVE ESPOIR! This is what I call a family that I truly belong with. Espoir is the m0st coolest cult and I know they will last long because there's a lot of stuff to do here.

Rhiney :: Sometimes people forget that they aren't the only one suffering with a problem. Many times people whole up in their little world and try and forget the world because they feel that the world forgot about them first. Finding a community that is both active and effective is not something people like this take for granted. The ability to simply sign online and have the sort of resources that Espoir can provide is invaluable and can be an essential part of anyone's self-therapy. Not everyone can afford 50 - 100 dollar professional therapy sessions, but thanks to Espoir you can gain access to research, articles, testimonies, self help threads, and a group of people that are waiting and willing to aid you in any way they can. Sharing parts of yourself on this cult can help you find your way through dark times, as well as keep you in high spirits instead of waiting for another axe to fall. Please come and join us and take advantage of what we have to offer, here, at Espoir.

Nicolle :: Espoir is everything I could hope for in a support cult. Everyone here is supportive and willing to advise if it is needed. It has helped me realize that I am not alone in the things I have been through and that I don't have to suffer silently. Espoir has shown me that there are people out there that care and are genuinely interested in me as a person. It has helped me realize that I am stronger than I thought and that everything that has happened to me, however bad, has made the person I am today. Thank you Espoir. A true inspiration to everyone.

Hoshi :: This Espoir cult is amazing. Every post I see with people asking for help or just venting out any anger or worries, Espoir is there for anyone. I've been a member of Espoir for a while now and I would definitely recommend it to anyone who has a problem that needs solving, or just wants to help people in need. This world needs a lot more people like there are in this cult, since the world is full of selfishness and ignorance. Espoir is true and real. They definitely won't let anyone down. The inspiration I've seen is purely fantastic.

Danielle :: Espoir is truly a unique place full of amazing, helpful and truly caring people. I've been a member of cults like this before, but always ran into disrespect and insults. It's not like that here! I'm always eager to post and see what everyone else is talking about. To put it simply, Espoir is REAL. No gimmicks. No false words (nor false people). There's happiness, laughter and pure advice around every corner.

Oriana :: Espoir gives everyone a private and supportive place to tell your story. I have literally just told mine, which helps with the recovery process. I feel a sense of closure from telling, maybe what I always needed. It gives everyone a place where they can be themselves, whatever has happened in their past. It gives everyone a safe haven from the outside world. Advice and support are always here, which gives everyone a happier feeling, knowing people are just there to listen and to help. And occasionally there's some giggles and hugs too. Espoir is home.

Tina :: I really have to thank Espior. Since I've been a member of this cult, I've been able to tell the story of how I got to where I am today. I feel like I can help people too. In your advice or articles section, I know now that I have S.A.D. and emotional eating problems. The S.A.D. is currently being worked on with the right experts, light therapy and so on. I also have a great source for my journey to quit smoking. All of you have really helped me out since I've been a member. Thank you so very much, to this site and everyone in this cult. Thank you!

Christina :: Espoir is unique in it's own way. You know that you have friends here that will help and support you. if you post things here when you are on the edge of something, you can get help to get over to the bright side again. At least that's what happened to me. I really like it in here because of that. I have a lot of friends from cults like this, and you can talk to others that might have the same problem as you, and you can help each other out and become really good friends, since you are in a way in the same boat. So, for me, this has been a great way to get rid of my bad thoughts when I need it.

Alex :: I haven't been real active as I've not had a computer to access, but I've noticed that it has come a long way. ModelJessie invited me a while back. I was kind of hoping I would be able to be more active, but she has done a great deal with Espoir and as I'm reading the posts, she has helped a lot of people so far and I see a lot to come from this cult. I would recommend this cult to anyone and everyone I see on VF, and I'm glad to be a part of it.

Patricia :: Espoir is an amazing supportive cult. If you have any problems or you are grieving than this cult is great for you. I joined this cult cause my daughter, ModelJessie, is a Staff member in it. She told me to join 'cause it may help me to get past some of my grieving over my loving husband. Thank you so much for creating this cult. It is helping me so very much to read everyone's stories and all that.

Emmy :: Espoir really does mean what it means (hope). The Staff and members give hope to everyone that needs it, advises and helps. It is like one big family, where everyone is welcome and everyone gets along. These are real people with real problems and the help is real. Everyone is so welcoming and up for helping people. It's something you don't see in other cults.

Ellie :: I only just joined Espoir, and I am already amazed at the intelligence and understanding of the people here. I feel for the first time, in a very long time, that I have people to talk to for support. Espoir is comforting and safe, and I really needed that right now. I want to thank the people here for showing me I am not alone. Thank you, Espoir.

Kelcie :: Espoir is a cult that I'm new to. Although I'm new, and not so familiar with it, I already feel at home with it. Espoir is a place where I can express everything that I usually can't in a lot of other cults. I've mentioned a few things here already, that I would never even tell anyone else. The people in Espoir have been through the things I have, which make it even more easier to talk about the things I'm going through. I can develop aid for both myself and others, just through talking about my problems and things around that category. I thank Espoir for it's aid and it's eye in hope. To be honest, it's gave me a little more hope as well. I'm sure I'm not the only one who feels that way. Thank you Espoir, for providing me with a " home " I can feel.. home in.

Agus :: I feel free here. It's a place where nobody can judge you, where you find people who share similar interests, problems. It's a place free from prejudices, I've never felt more comfortable.

Danielle :: Espoir, for me, has been a great place for me to seek help and speak my mind. While I've been afraid to speak my mind in other advice and support cults where people have been so negative, Espoir isn't like that at all. Sure there's been times when I've but heads with others due to my opinions on certain matters, but that's the fun about it. It helps me to interact with people, speak my mind and be more social. Espoir is truly full of wonderful people who give this cult a family atmosphere.

Tabitha :: Espoir is definitely a necessity in life, maybe not the online forum but the word itself for sure. Without Hope (Espoir), we lose all. And thankfully we have the gift of these modern days to thank for our being able to have Espoir here at VF full of fun, active, friendly members and Staff to sometimes guide, console, and just joke with you. I don't think I have a more favored cult I'm Root in. It's everything I stand for. Helping others and letting no one lose that hope we all so surely start out with. Whether it's 4 AM or 12 PM, I'm sure someone from Espoir is almost always available to talk to when you need it. Espoir, hope, it's what we're about through and through, not the popularity, not the points or the free graphics // Premium, (though those are a plus sometimes), it's all about the help and the light we can shine on seemingly horrid situations. Espoir creates joy, Espoir creates tears, and Espoir created a family here on VF. What more could any of us ask for?

Nik :: Espoir, what can I say about it? It is amazing. Without it, I would never have found a place where I can find peace with myself. Without being here, I wouldn't be able to be with peace, and be able to tell others and help others, about their lives which I may of been through. Being a member of Espoir, over the couple of days, has been awesome. I could of never found a place like this. The Staff is amazing, and actually do their job, unlike most cults on here, which give aid for others. Most other cults wouldn't, and I enjoy being part of this cult because it's really good. The games, contests, polls and discussions are a great way to take your mind out of things, the advice section is great because others and yourself get to learn quite a lot about different subjects and about what people are going through. Hope is in the name and that's what it offers.

Neil :: Espoir is a “cult” that offers support and advice to those in need. It has been my observation that the members and Staff are very compassionate, empathetic and generous. Information for a great variety of issues is kept current and accurate. Those in need can find support and quick responses for just about any situation, and those who have been to Hell, and back, can use their practical experience to assist others. During my 2 months on VF I have seen Staff stay diligent (and responsive) in a most considerate and sensitive manner. Safe to say that you will be pleased with membership - and you will be treated with care and respect. Not to mention all the fun stuff that happens, such as games, polls, contests and discussions.

Kayla :: Espoir gives me a place where I can go and know that others will accept me, and befriend me, all together while supporting me. The cult has great Staff, and wonderful members. Everyone pulls together, to turn sadness into happiness, and it's one of the best cults I have ever joined!

Caz :: Espoir is an amazing group with such amazing people. Everyone's so friendly with one another. We're made to feel so welcomed. I know that if I ever need help or advice with something, I could come here and at least one person will be willing to talk to me, as I'm willing to do with anyone too.

Kimmy :: Good Lord, I can't even imagine putting this into words but I reckon I'll try. Espoir has really and truly helped me. I don't even have to say what's bothering me and I come in here and see all our members so happy or getting help and it helps me. I love all of the members and Staff like family and wouldn't want them to leave for anything. You can walk in and immediately feel welcomed or at least, I did. I feel like and hope our members feel the same way. The Staff and members work hard to make this cult what it is and we like to think of it as our cult, including the members. We could never ask for more dedication in a cult. This place is by far the best advice cult I've ever been in. I've been in quite a few but they never felt like.. well, home. This is my home. It may sound strange to say but that's just how I feel about it. I never thought that when I saw Espoir pop up on newest cults that I'd soon be a trusted Co-Owner and care about this cult more than most cults on VF. I'll never give up on this place and I hope it continues to stay open for a very long time. Sometimes I feel like I wanna just forget VF all together or I just don't wanna log on because of everything but I can come in here and those feelings are whipped away and smile comes upon my face. (:

Amy :: I've been a member of VampireFreaks for a couple of years, and I've seen my fair share of cults come and go. Espoir is one of the best advice type cults I've seen, and I think it's here to stay! I'm enjoying being an active member here, and the rest of the members are really friendly.

Audrey :: I am new to this club but I love it already. This club is basically about helping people and I have done the same thing all my life. I like to help people but have never had anyone to talk to about my problems so in this club I can. I am so grateful to the Creator of this club.

Trife :: It's one of the better advice cults I've been in. Everyone seems to actually take the time to read what you post which therefore there's effort in the responses you receive back. People here take the time to actually care even if it's just for a second.

Steven :: When in need of help, friends, or even just fun. Look no further than Espoir! This cult is an active community to suit the needs of anyone. We've got advice, games, discussions, contests, and a society of respectable people like yourself! Join us and see what Espoir (hope) has in store for you!

Chris :: Espoir is the most amazing cult ever! I don't regret joining this cult. I hope I can share Espoir with new people who have not joined.

Keri :: What to say about Espoir.. Haha, I'm so kidding! This cult is literally my top priority in the cults that I'm Staff of. The members are truly amazing as well as the Staff members. If I wasn't Staff, I would still love the people here and the cult itself. I've been in a lot of advice cults and none of them have made me feel welcomed like Espoir did. I've made amazing connections with some of the members. I love this cult. There's always at least one or more people viewing the cult at all times or at least until 4 AM, haha. There's a ton of different places to post also.

Sarah Marissa :: Espoir is a fantastic cult. The Staff is wonderful, and very helpful. I feel like everyone actually wants to talk and to help instead of how some cults just say they want to. I love all the people I've talked to so far and I really love the informative section with all the disorders and such. Anytime I have questions they've been answered pretty quickly and in a very good way. Espoir is the first cult I've found on VF that really makes me want to be an active member. I enjoy reading peoples stories and offering feedback and comfort. I love how there's a lot of games and even the quizzes. Most of all though, is the acceptance I get from people in the cult. People here don't look down on me for my problems. Here we accept these things and try to help in ways that most people aren't willing to do. This cult honestly makes me very happy.

Tabitha :: Let's just say it's obvious I freaking adore Espoir and the members as well as fellow Staff members, why else would I have even applied for Root or have joined to begin with? The Owner could not be any sweeter and though the support and help cults have been done before on VF plenty of times, this one seems to have brought something back most started to lose over time. A true connection and safe feeling for it's members. No one here is to go unspoken, the only thing we need to be afraid of with Espoir is not speaking up, because you already know you will be heard.

Kiara :: Let me begin by saying I adore this cult and everything it stands for. I'm not sure if I'm the only one who's noticed, but the world has become criminally desensitized. It's all about tough love these days, and there really isn't anywhere for someone like me to go when I need support. Espoir is such a non-judgmental place, and very close-knit and caring. I'm glad that I found it.

Jessie :: Espoir is an amazing cult. Staff and members are so helpful. If you need some advice, they're all willing to help you out the best that they can. They're also a great support team. I believe that if you need help with anything, you need to join this cult. It's the best, and you can make some great friends on here as well.

Steven :: When I first started on VF, it was out of soul emptiness. I was lonely, suicidal, addicted to drugs, and not caring about any of it. Life wasn't a precious gift in my eyes, but a constant burden which I wanted to end through becoming numb and harming myself without a fear of consequence. I thought I was lost, and the world would just forget me. Then I found Espoir. Nothing has been more key to my recovery than this cult. Because of my participation I found a fun way to be above the influence of drugs. I found people who care and accept me. Even good karma came my way since I'd been here. I even found the love of my life shortly after. This cult has all I could think of needing or wanting whether it be fun, help, advice, discussion, or an escape from a hard place. Espoir stands true to it's meaning and has given me what I never thought I'd ever feel. Hope.
