...the idea of it with a past therapist but was in an abusive situation at the time, I have also heard that for victims of organized ritual abuse and very severe forms of abuse (especially in childhood) it is a very no good bad idea and you should let your memories stay as they are and focus...

For fifty years I repressed memories of SRA (satanic ritual abuse). Throughout those decades I experienced a wide variety of physiological aches and pains: terrible pain in my head neck, back, arms and legs. When I complained to physicians about my pain--which was due to torture inflicted by...

I have searched for a forum where I can have an open, honest discussion of SRA in the catholic church with other survivors. I don't think I can talk about the specifics of the abuse that I experienced. When I have revealed specifics to therapists, usually 50% of therapists refuse to work with...

Hello Mimi000 CPTSD has stages, and your in the dissociation stage that you can manage. Techniques that have helped me are: senses: engage all senses can you move your left hand fingers and then right hand fingers, and then walk and touch different parts of self or if needed focus on a tree or...

...media. But if you expand into the further information that is being revealed, you'll see there is so much more. It's about satanic ritual abuse of children and so, so much more. I'm very tired or would give examples, but I want to make sure they are accurate and I'm just too tired. Women are...

...story in flashbacks so intense, it was obvious I wasn't imagining things. I started getting clues in my dreams. In my case, I am a ritual abuse survivor as well. My first clear memory of that came in 2013. I still don't remember everything, but enough to have a sense of my life story that...

Thanks, that's some very thorough advice. I'm actually surprisingly well off despite this (I actually got a comp sci degree in the few years afterwards lol) but some of the symptoms now I think are due to accumulation/age and situational isolation. Anyways I appreciate it, will check out some of...

A bit about me before providing tips and tricks so there's some context - my ancestors experienced genocide on both sides of my family resulting in chronic systemic abuse, assault and abandonment being passed down to me. So during my lifetime of falling through the gaps into repeated...

Thank you for your beautiful post. A few times I have had relationships with nonjudgmental people. I think I try to be honest without testing waters first. I have learned to appreciate my own company.

...express what a relief that is. I don't have that in my life now, though. My experience is a little different, since my trauma is from ritual abuse and mind control and started from birth, I was amnesic about what had happened to me until my early forties. It's possible that while the trauma...

...relating to this topic. If replies are too much I intend to go for a walk and consider whether to reply or not. That said... As a ritual abuse survivor, a huge part of what I deal with is the overwhelming lack of understanding among the general pubic of what that is or even that it's a real...

I'm having trouble with the quote function. Yes to your question about SRA. It's definitely not "just" Christmas. It's an exacerbation of how I feel year round. What you describe about your anniversary period covers some of it. Not mattering, being discarded without care or concern. Is that a...

...from around this time? You aren't alone in your feelings of despair and SI. Can I ask what SRA stands for? I'm guessing satanic ritual abuse? I'm just coming out of 'November' which I think is an anniversary period for me, and had similar feelings and thoughts. It's the 'not mattering'...

I wonder if I have sexual trauma because my mom might have suggested I was SA’d. She brought up how Satanic Ritual Abuse is a thing when I was 5 and I don’t know if she mentioned sexual abuse to me or not as it was so long ago. A lot of supposed SA is included in that. Last time I regressed was...

What does being ____ your trauma______ mean to you? Csa’d Child sexually assaulted Child sexually abused Beaten Used as a sexual toy Sexually assaulted by one’s dad Mean to you? Hmmm… Spidey sense about others’ moods and states Empath (🤣) Sensitive to kids in general and adult survivors...

I can't get high. I think my dopamine system is utterly broken, thanks to childhood abuse and anhedonia in general. Is it genetic? I have no frame of reference. I get no pain relief with narcotics, thankfully, because I'd probably be an addict if I could. I get sharp, painful emotional...

We tried this early on a couple months after I confessed to her. After our first session they said she needed to work on patience and I needed to work on listening and my communication (I'm a pretty bad listener and it takes a while sometimes for me to get what she's saying). Later that week my...

I'll tell you why. Because suicide destroys people around us. I'm a survivor of child abuse and I have wanted to commit suicide more times than I can remember. I didn't because I know it would destroy my mother. I know this because my paternal grandmother committed suicide in an exact...

To answer your question about what on particular looks like you being an abused person justifying her abuse of you, I've just selected a few quotes from the section in your post where you are responding to me This example above ^^. This is you highlighting she has a legitimate health issue...

Hello, I'm going to try and keep this short as I could write pages and pages about the history of my wife and I's relationship. The short is that when we first met I had recently broken up with an ex and was still helping her with a business she was working on. I ended up loaning her most of my...

Hi. My name is Jeff Riley and I actually kind of dread even writing this! Perhaps it's because I'm not exactly sure how. I always thought PTSD came from things like traumatic individual circumstances, like the proverbial seeing your friends die in war. Perhaps that's why I've avoided mine...

...in the 1800s or 1900s, for example. Could her trauma have made her more likely to engage in the acts, especially as it was ritual abuse? Maybe. But we can't know for sure. Even if we could mindread, it's doubtful that "username" would have known, either. In fact, specifically arguing that it...

I have felt like there's a curse on me throughout this whole narcissistic abuse thing. (I know there's no such thing as a curse, but it *feels* like it). I guess that's a good thing, objectively speaking, that I can identify something that feels negative/ bad about it. I could imagine doing a...

Thank you for link

...where such actions are extremely common, as our rates of human trafficking are amongst the highest in Canada. Here is their page on ritual abuse, which, if your memories are accurate, your experiences would fall under. Ritualisms in abuse are designed to draw even more power discrepancy...
