Organized Perpetrator Groups for Mind Control, Sexual Exploitation, and Ritualized Abuses

I am writing this blog article in response to a blog comment / question sent to me re: the frequency of ritual / cult abuse. 

I am also going to clarify what the term “organized abuse” means to me.

For the purposes of this blog response, I am going to give an answer based on my personal experience as a trauma therapist that specializes in Dissociative Disorders.  Some day I will check into the official statistics for how many trauma survivors with DID have ritual / cult abuse backgrounds versus how many do not.

For today, I can more quickly pull from my 30 years of clinical experience in working with multiples from all different areas of the USA and from different countries of the world.

I met my first DID survivor in 1988.  

Since then, I have worked in specialized inpatient units for trauma and Dissociative Disorders, with individuals, couples, families, and groups.  I was the group leader for an inpatient group for Ritual Abuse for several years.  I have had a busy outpatient private practice and I started working online with multiples in 2002 via AbuseConsultants.  In 2005, SurvivorForum group members (from all over the world) began writing about ritualised abuses. And in 2008,  DID survivor writers posting comments on this Discussing Dissociation blog have also written about their ritual abuse histories.  I also have collected hundreds of “The Negative Impact of Childhood Sexual Abuse” surveys from trauma survivors via AbuseConsultants where many survivors have included information about their experiences with ritualized abuses.  And now, DiscussingDissociation has had well over 1 million views by dissociative survivors.

Between these various opportunities, I have had contact with hundreds of different and unique DID survivors over the past 30 years.

While individual stories and life experiences have varied greatly for these different survivors, there are a number of overlapping similarities as well. Some multiples have spoken in great detail and clarity about their ritualistic / cult-based abuses, and some multiples have had nothing of the sort happen in their background.

Yes, without a doubt, people can dissociate and split and fragment into different personalities, thus becoming DID, even without cult-type abuses.  That is absolutely true.  One does not “have to have” cult abuse in order to become multiple – not in any way, shape, or form.

What I mean by “organized abuse” is that the abuse was happening under the controls of an organized group of perpetrators.  This could mean a ritual / cult type group.  This could mean a governmental / mind control experiment group.  This could mean a sex slavery / sexual exploitation group.   Organized abuse means that the primary abusers are not working as isolated individuals.  The abusers are part of a larger group of perpetrators that have specific plans / ideas / routines / procedures / steps / methods that fit their purposes.

There are any number of organized groups highly skilled in mind control techniques, some more heavily laden in religious beliefs, others just based on making money through selling various versions of sex.  Groups such as the KKK, the Masons, and the Illuminati have been named as organized perpetrator groups, with hidden rituals centered on purposeful, planned, severe abuse of children.

The CIA has declassified documents describing various military mind control research programs from the 1950’s through the 1980’s in the USA involving the abuse of children.

For more information, read a lecture series with Dr. Colin Ross and his presentation, “The CIA and Military Mind Control Research: Building the Manchurian Candidate” .  Dr. Ross presented this lecture at the 9th Annual Western Clinical Conference on Trauma and Dissociation.  Some of the more known military research projects are MKULTRA, BLUEBIRD, and ARTICHOKE.

Some pornography rings — sex slavery groups selling the most extreme forms of sex — claim “ownership” of a variety of children they use, sell, and exploit through various forms of pornography and prostitution.  These perpetrators can and do use specific forms of mind control techniques (which typically cause splitting and dissociation) in order to facilitate more control over their “slaves”.  The more highly trained a sex-slave is, the more dissociative they are, the more different roles they can play, the more money the prostitution ring can make from selling their services.

Ritualistic abuse and satanic type abuses are an additional complicated type of abuse that is talked about by many survivors.  For some people, the SRA is presented as the ultimate goal of their abusers, with the religious beliefs holding the ultimate reward.  For others, the cult-like rituals are presented as busy, overwhelming, gory, but purposeful layers of abuse (or screen memories of perceived abuse) that are there to discredit the person and/or to hide the deeper mind-control and exploitation purposes hidden underneath.

In my experience, meeting dissociative trauma survivors with at least one of these types of organized abuses has been the norm, occurring more frequently than meeting clients without them.

Apparently there are a whole lot of real nasty perpetrator types living in all corners of the world.  Yikes.  What a yucky thought.

At least there are also some genuine, skilled trauma therapists that can help the survivors of these atrocious abuses.

Even if you were a victim of any of these kinds of horrific abuses, there is hope for you.

I wish you the very best in your healing journey.

Warmly,

Kathy
