Satanic/Occult Ritual Abuse
The satanic panic of the 1980’s has really made it hard for those of us who were truly abused by a satanic ritual group. Because of this panic many therapists and the general public may not believe a person who states they have been abused in this way. It has made my trauma story really hard to find therapists and people who can help and understand what I am going through. SRA is real and there are survivors out there. We deserve to be heard. We deserve healing. I want to be able to speak my truth and not feel embarrassed by what I went through.0opht
