    Sufferer Hi. I Messed Up And People Died. Nice To Meet You All.

    Yes. That describes it to a tea. And I wish you resolution from that same guilt. At times, I still feel that same way. But since there was nothing I could have done to stop what happened to my sister, I don't feel so bad any longer. But those who were in harms way, as adults, because of me, it...

    Is Dissociation Universal?

    I had a doctor recently (last year) while I was inpatient, tell me I needed to "kill off" all my alters. I turned on him. I was not nice at all. My comment to him, "Perhaps you should cut off your penis since you're old and probably don't use it any more." Pencil, Just you know. Our little...

    DID D.i.d. & ptsd- therapy methods

    Yes, my dear. You are on that wonderful path called "Healing". I am so pleased that you have a person who specializes in DID & PTSD. Good job. Not all therapists deal with Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID). Back when I was first diagnosed they called it Multiple Personality Disorder (MPD)...

    Sufferer Cult And Child Sexual Abuse Survivor

    Modernmama, I agree with Brad1980. You were very brave to do that. I do hope you have a good trauma therapist who is familiar with ways to break the training you got while inside the cult. The stuff you learned early in life tends to stay with you, and if you were programmed, like I was, to...

    Is Dissociation Universal?

    For me, the inner children can disrupt my routine. I mean, good grief, I'm 67 years old. One would think by now I'd behave as an adult should, right? WRONG! Growing up, I never learned how an adult is suppose to behave. I sure didn't want to be like those "adults" whom were around me. The only...

    (((( Bubzilla )))), I hope you reported them. Many years ago I worked at an aged care facility. I was shocked at what I saw.I stayed for a long while, just to take care of the patients, but when I saw that nothing was going to change, I too left. They shut down not to long afterwards. I often...

    Opinions On Stress Reactions Wanted

    That is a wise thing to do. You are setting safe boundaries for yourself. Once I learned how to set safe boundaries I began to do much better around people. My problem is, I am starting from scratch again, since I was home-bound for these past few years. October 2012 is the first time (other...

    Poll Was Anybody Convicted For Crimes Against You?

    My answer is yes and no. Those who broke into my home and tortured me and got me pregnant each got 15 years. The man who stalked me got 6 months and a fine. My uncle and father never spent one day in jail. Although my father had to go to court, he was released since he hadn't been home when...

    Do You Ever Wish You Hadn't Fought Back?

    That cop was so stupid. The laws are now that even a husband can be charged with rape when they force you or do things against your will. It is so hurtful the way a rape victim is treated. That is one of the reasons I used to work for the rape crisis center. I would go to the hospital or...

    Where Do I Go To Get These Emotion Thingies?

    Growing up I wasn't allowed to have emotions. None. I was in adulthood before I learned what emotions really are and was able to put a name to each one. When I was in a mental hospital, one of the classes was on emotions. The instructor had a large poster with faces on it showing the different...

    Stats / Ranks System - Member Feedback Required

    I"m rather slow. how do you see these wheelchairs? I put my mouse over the spot below a person's name, and all I see are the words, "needs help" and a small black bar.

    Sufferer Survivor Of Gun Violence

    Fear makes you not leave your home, ever. Fear makes you so paranoid you can't even walk around in your own home with curtains open. Caution means you lock doors and windows, and make sure you don't go where you know danger is lurking. I'd say you are using caution, and keeping yourself safe...
