What is ritual abuse and examples?

...an experienced Christian and therefore God didn't really speak to them. Pure BS. It wasn't until I met this pastor who worked with ritual abuse survivors that my life as a Christian changed for the good. He basically told me that being a Christian is about talking to Jesus just like he and I...

Hi Links, I'm ritual abuse (RA) survivor. My father was a serial killer. I've not seen RA discussed here that often either. I wouldn't call what my father did a cult. Though I've been in quite a few cults because of my father's abuse, RA. It made me vulnerable for indoctrination into cults...

...It's quite unusual to find a therapist with this knowledge. She's never had a client with this type of abuse, though she's dealt with ritual abuse which is what I experienced. There's no accident that I've found her. She's qualified in so many ways; 25 years of working with survivors of...

I got into heavy drugs as a teenager and was date raped at fourteen years old. This was a side effect of being assaulted by my father in the second grade quite violently. I blocked some of the memory and only have gaps with that memory. I became very promiscous and was raped repeatedly because...

I had close to a hundred alters and fragments. I gave up trying to track how many there were. In 2006 I integrated. When I remembered the worst of the ritual abuse it was after 2010.

...three years old, at least that I know of, but could've been sooner. Three years old is my current earliest memory. My father's abuse was ritual abuse (RA). He forced me to watch him kidnap, rape, torture, and kill boys. For a long time, I could only recognize that father-daughter rape had...

Because of your comment/question, I decided to add the acronym, RA, after the first mention of "ritual abuse" in my post.

Hi joeylittle, RA is Ritual Abuse

...I have maybe ten or fifteen memories up until age twelve that didn't involve sexual assault and/or rape and/or physical abuse and/or the ritual abuse stuff. It just seems so unfair that almost all of my childhood memories involve sexual abuse/assault/rape or whatever else you care to call...

...wanted to see suddenly showed up again, calling me just today. Phew. She's got 25 plus experience in PTSD with combat, sexual abuse, and ritual abuse (RA). So I think she's experienced enough to help me. I'm a ritual abuse survivor. Anyway, former T told me not to worry about my avoidance of...

I know I don't belong. I never grew up belonging to a family. Didn't grow up in a neighborhood to identify with. No school identity, as I rarley atteded school they called it "home study." I could never accept my families religious belifes, although I tried my damned hardest, so no religious...

This, this is what makes it rape. Because you knew that if you didn't, it WOULD get ugly. He had already made you aware of that previously. That IS rape, and that IS abuse. Let me put it in my trauma. This WILL be graphic. I was forced to kill animals. I refused the first few hundred...

My T does all kinds of safe touch as well as talking, so that helps me tremendously. The post-session hug has become our favorite ritual! He loves dogs too, so I used to bring my SD prospect to sessions with me. I don't anymore, but that abused GSD just loved my T, and T was great...

One of my recovery peers was an infant and child victim of Satanic ritual abuse. She did though not isolate but acquired a peculiar habit of blessing everything... and hugging her trees much to her spouse's and consternation of the neighbors but she didn't care. She was so grateful to be...

I've always struggled with the you are not alone or everyone suffers idea. I have a background of ritual abuse interfamily run, all things earned, punishment as a way of life for not doing or being as told to be in that setting. Then having to not be, do or say anything about all that when back...

...neglect witnessing murders, first at age 3 and onward until age 14 forced to participate in murders (my father was a serial killer) ritual abuse raised by personality disordered parents and father witnessing violence toward a sibling to whom I was close to almost lost my eyesight in one eye...

@SheilaKathy, my abusers were also very innocent, professional, gentlemen looking people. They went against what society sees as what "perps look like". They had split lives and real world "normal" faces. It is odd how someone can act so normal in the world but so psycopath behind closed...

I grew up in a cult ran by my step dad and mom. My therapist said I had Stolkholm for a few yrs of my forced therapy. I brought all the rituals but one into adulthood and it took a ton of effort to finally stop and I got sucked back into it some how and thats frustrating! At myself mostly as...

Ok, well this is going to make me not anon but thats ok. I grew up in a cult. One of the rituals was full on sex with dogs. It is one of the rituals I brought into adulthood. My dog isn't intact so oral was the only thing we could do, which is good. It was still one of the rituals I was...

Yeah, I have found some good articles online and I did have a great session with my new T. And we did talk about kind of my regret about how it could have been handled. I generally try to avoid "should-ing myself down" or indulging "if only's" but as I am planning a releasing ritual today, it...

My understanding: satan hates man God loves man All abuse is from satan to destroy man

@Overcomer77 - I read Colin Ross' book Satanic Ritual Abuse recently (nurse gave it to me when I was in hospital!). The stuff that happened to me was sadistic, but not satanic. Not that it makes a huge difference I guess. That book has been criticised a lot from people saying satanic cults...

It sounds like satanic ritual abuse. Google that for some info Also, this type of abuse gives you the origin of the evil behind it.

...nothing new to me. Even if I wasn't abused and had all that stuff happen I'm sure I'd still be like this. Had the trauma centered around ritual abuse NOT have happened, I might be some kind of practitioner, I don't know. But right now I just... wanna.. figure my own stuff out. Sorry thing...
