I don't know much about recovery from a first-hand point of view.  What I can tell you is that an old college friend of mine got involved with them, and they have screwed her up pretty good.  She's like a mindless zombie who lives, breathes, eats and sleeps Landmark Forum.\n\nHere are some links to articles about Landmark, and its predecessor organization EST, on the Rick Ross Institute website.  (Rick Ross Institute is a not-for-profit devoted to tracking destructive cults, controversial groups and movements).\n\nhttp://www.rickross.com/groups/landmark.html\nhttp://www.rickross.com/groups/forum.html\nhttp://www.rickross.com/groups/est.html\n\nAnd here's the Getting Help page from the same site.  \n\nhttp://rickross.net/help.html\n\nMy best wishes to you and your loved ones effected by this.
