i took responsibility for the pain, and it went away. That and Neuro Linguistic Programming helped my white ass heal.<br> <p></p><i></i>

Incidentally, what are some other ways to help victims of abuse heal? CAN someone even actively help someone else heal? I would really appreciate some links. Or information. <br><br>Obviously, the issue of taking responsibility is a sensitive one, and its likely that it gets taken as an affront to some who are very hurt and not ready to go there yet. You cant push healing on people. I pushed it on myself and it worked but thats a lot different because I can regulate how far Im ready to go at a time.<br><br>I dont think I really understood or knew that. So actually I appreciate DE and blanc telling me to go fuck myself, taught me something.<br><br>What are some different ways? I mean beyond giving the person love. Im talking about active strategies for healing a loved one. Based on truth. <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://p216.ezboard.com/brigorousintuition.showUserPublicProfile?gid=4911>4911</A> at: 7/3/06 3:17 am<br></i>

I have posted a bit on that subject on some of the threads in here. i'll try and find em.<br><br><!--EZCODE QUOTE START--><blockquote><strong><em>Quote:</em></strong><hr>I mean beyond giving the person love.

A safe caring community, and being part of it helped more than anything else in this regard, in the cases I know about.<br><br>Anyway thats all my own opinion based on my experience. It doesn't really give you much to go on i am sorry. I am not an exspurt on this by the smallest fraction of a long shot, but there have been some successes in my life.

assumptions

Postby blanc » Mon Jul 03, 2006 6:33 am

blaming victims, or asking them to blame themselves is nauseous however it is framed. Its a different statement to make, that victims should in certain circumstances, wherever possible, take some charge of their own healing. If that's what you meant 4911, ok, pity you didn't say that right off.<br>Indirectly Joe, you've probably highlighted the basis for the blame the victim frame of mind - people get so self protective, they become scared of being taken for a sucker by a false victim story, or used as a supporter for someone who doesn't really need it. DE and I, though we have little else in common I suspect, are close to people who right now in and in the immediate past, have needed support. Some of your statements 4911 came close enough to vomit to the statements particularly vile criminals have made to justify their acts. That touches a raw nerve. I wish you well in the healing process. good luck. <p></p><i></i>

I believe I heard the victim must take responsibility for his victimization in order to begin healing from a Wayne Dyer mp3. I was desperate to heal myself at the time and tried it, mixed in with some visualisation techniques from an NLP mp3. It worked for me. I think he approached the subject differently. Thats what it boiled down to for me, thats what I wrote here in a nutshell. He cited an example, told the story of a woman who had been tricked to pull off the freeway driving her kids home after school one day. She pulled over to help someone with some car troubles when she was KOd and pushed into a van, then raped in a hotelroom for days and then left there. She made it out alive and she took full responsibility for the occurance, crazy as it sounds. SHE SAID that enabled her to heal within a few months. She told him that story, he told me, I told you.<br> <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://p216.ezboard.com/brigorousintuition.showUserPublicProfile?gid=4911>4911</A> at: 7/3/06 6:25 am<br></i>

And by the way saying "the victim must take responsibility in order to heal" is not the same as saying "I blame the victims for their weakness" by several million miles<br><br>So thanks for trying to manipulate that around but no thanks.

"...but not for the actions of her attacker(s)"<br><br>EXACTLY. THANK YOU.<br><br><br>And people who abuse children deserve to be locked in a room with someone or several someones who will abuse them in exactly the same way, only magnified - make it double or triple the amount to account for the varying degrees of innocence & personal stability between adults and children. Humiliate those sub-human molesting fucks down to the dead center cores of their souls. They might not think its so fun then. Either that or build a machine thatll do the job. They go in as molestors on one end, come out with an ass&mind full of a fraction of what they did to someone on the other. Since it cant be quantified realistically, the fraction should be something that will haunt them the rest of their lives. <br><br>Ok. Now Im done. <br> <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://p216.ezboard.com/brigorousintuition.showUserPublicProfile?gid=4911>4911</A> at: 7/3/06 7:20 am<br></i>

Joe, I don't know where to start. I used some in that sentence because there are times when some victims cannot take any or some of the responsibility for their own healing. If you don't know what those times are, much has been posted on trauma here and many resources exist to explain its workings. Repeated serious trauma can and does damage the brain's functioning, saying the victim when in a seriously ill state should take all responsibility for themselves is like telling a man with a c3 spinal lesion he should buck up and walk. 4911, your first propositions, sample requoted just above this by DE were ludicrous. You seemed to be saying victims are responsible for their own victimisation. crap. then when I answered that, you pulled the victim card - the thing you say victims should not do, and seemed to be saying something different. Now we are back to your first idea again. This is too confused for me to sort out in the time I've got available, but my position remains, victims are not responsible for being victimised and should not be made to feel they are. They should when they can, take responsibility in whatever measure they can at the time manage, for their own healing. <br>Part of the suffering imposed on ra victims is the 'you want this' rubbish, the 'this is your choice' nonsense and related crazy making enforcement. As apparently you align yourself with this - approve of it, there is no point in discussing it further with you. <br><br>I'm sorry this thread has got off quantum physics - there seemed to be interesting stuff there and I was looking forward to anyone with more knowledge of the subject and a flair for making it comprehensible chipping in. <p></p><i></i>
