I felt defeated and had believed so strongly in the poly's accuracy prior to taking one. I remember thinking that if what the examiner is saying is true and I really failed, then no wonder he doesn't believe me --if I were him, I wouldn't believe me, either--not with a failed poly. My belief had been that if someone failed a poly, he or she is guilty of the accusations, period.

You spoke my words exactly how I feel!  Personally, this is the reason I'm going through a personal "great depression".  I used to be a firm believer in the polygraph.
After the event happened, I was so traumatized that I spoke to a few of my close friends about the situation.  One of my friends actually asked me if I've ever used drugs.  I was shocked that he would ask me that question.  Of course, it's because he believes in the polygraph - I wouldn't believe me either unless I went through the experience.  This is one of those experiences in life where one has to go through it in order to understand it.
