Trauma and Dissociation: Understanding Early Trauma, Mind Programming and Installed Dissociative Identity Disorder
Pat Frankish,Carrie Anne Smith
With a focus on the use of systemic mind control in the context of cults and the associated trauma of this ritualistic abuse, this book addresses a gap in resources to provide training and therapeutic approaches to both those living with mind control and Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID), and those who support them such as a carer, family member or mental health professional. DID is a condition that is provoked from the experience of being mind controlled, enabling abusers to manipulate their victims during and beyond the period of abuse, whilst simultaneously occurring naturally as a survival mechanism. Developed from both lived experience and expert knowledge from a specialist in trauma work, content covers therapeutic approaches such as attachment theory and trauma-informed care; established training approaches for support staff and personal survival stories. The book aims to inform and empower survivors and supporters and aid the journey towards the understanding and tolerance of a complex psychological condition.
