Melissa Archer Reveals How She Escaped a Cult
Published By admin with Comments 1
It’s common when a year comes to an end that people look back and reflect on where they’ve been, what they’ve been through, and where they hope to go in the future. In doing that herself, soap alum Melissa Archer (Natalie, ONE LIFE TO LIVE; ex-Serena, DAYS OF OUR LIVES) opened up in a raw and vulnerable blog post revealing how she’d spent the year 2022 dismantling the areas of her life that don’t bring her joy, letting go of indoctrinated beliefs, and doing what makes her happy. And part of that, she revealed, was finally starting the conversation that she’d been in a cult a few years ago.
In the post, titled “Everything Changed,” Archer explained that about 10 years ago, as she felt a pull back into faith, she had an awakening and realized “that my life wasn’t authentic or real. As I searched for answers, I slowly moved away from people and things that did not bring me closer to genuineness.”
That included getting a divorce, she wrote. As she continued to search for answers, Archer confessed, she accidentally joined a cult. “Of course, I didn’t know it was one. I asked a million questions, never took what was taught as accurate until I did research, [and] thought my research started proving the teachings to be correct.

It seems like just about everyone knows someone that once was involved in a cult, cult-like group or abusive controlling relationship.
