More Information from an emailer

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Got another good tip for information about something I really don’t have much experience with myself, cultic ritual abuse. As always, passing it along for the benefit of those who may be interested.

3 of my friends have written a book about the sexual  abuse and physical brutalization they suffered in a cult called The Family.

The book Not Without My Sister has just been released in the UK and is at number 7 for all hard back book sales we are really trying to get it to number 1 so as the issue is at the forefront of peoples minds…and we believe it will promote our organization which has been set up to protect children from abuse in cults: RISE International

The book website is here:

and our organization site is here:

  • Question about abusing

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 2 minutes

    Michael left a comment and asked an interesting question:   Question for you: in order to sort of immunize myself from being an abusive person (you know that victims often become victimizers — scary but common statistic) what are the best steps? I had been verbally abusive and nearly physically abusive to my ex-spouse and…

  • We will eventually not be able to talk about sexual abuse online

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 2 minutes

    What’s objectionable? Who decides that? Does an abusive parent get to decide that no one should provide any information about abuse to their kid? Do ultra-religious parents get to decide that no one should see information about LGBTQ issues or mental health medication? Do non-religious parents get to decide that no one is allowed to read the Bible online due to violent passages? 

    It appears the answer to that, at least until a court steps in to strike down this law, is yes to all of that. As the EFF points out, this isn’t just a risk to the big tech platforms. Anyone with a blog, website, social media account, etc., is subject to a civil lawsuit based on a parent not agreeing with what they post. 

  • And another thing

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

    A comment left on that last post reminded me of another important reality. Healing from childhood abuse takes time, there’s no doubt about that, but the other thing is, it’s never too late to start! There’s plenty of times I look at my life, at the age of 35, and wish I hadn’t wasted so…

  • Once more on friendship

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

    Since we’ve been having all this discussion about friendship and relationships, I thought I would pose a question. When you tell people about your abuse or talk to them about specific issues surrounding it, suffering from depression for example, how would you like them to react? What do you expect from your friends, family, significant…

    Jean, a “psychologist-in-training” posted a message in the forums about finding survivors of physical child abuse by a parent and/or caregiver as part of her dissertation. If you’re interested you can read more about it in her post, and contact her.

  • It weighs heavy

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 2 minutes

    At least it’s weighing heavy on my mind these last few days. What is? The prospect of explaining the past to someone else in my family. It’s not something that I look forward to doing. As much as it’s very easy for me to write about the things that have happened in my family, it’s…
