When I was initially searching I wasn’t able to find these easily so! RAMCOA information:
- End ritual abuse (links to even more resources on the website, haven’t looked at many of them)
- RA-info
- Extreme abuse survey
- Becoming yourself: overcoming mind control and ritual abuse (note: heavily recommended to go through with a therapist or someone you trust rather than alone due to triggers and safety issues. Even if you don’t have a therapist please try to have someone nearby who can intervene if something gets triggered)
- this paper seemed promising regarding information on therapy and recovery, but I can’t find a freely available version:(
- Ritual abuse and mind control: The Manipulation of attachment needs (note: not full book, haven’t read it yet but I want to)
Might gather research done on it at some point, but I know the first three links ended up being incredibly helpful with figuring out what was going on in my system and it took a while for me to even find them so. I hope this helps someone else
Content Warning: mentioning of organized abuse, programming, system discourse.
I hate the misinformation and silencing around ramcoa survivors especially those who have been programmed to be a system. This will be a long yap be prepared.
Topics: hc DID, sidesystems
Let me first start of with the misinformation around the term hc DID (highly complex Dissociative Identity Disorder).
Highly complex DID doesn't mean they have more or worse trauma it means they have a highly complex system structure, hierarchys and innerworld due to it being created through programming so to serve someone else and not to protect the brain. These systems often have polyfragmentation, sidesystems who are completely separate from other subsystems containing programmed parts and a highly complex hierarchical structure often far more than 3 ranks.
This term gets treated like a community term which it isn't in reality. The term got coined by medical professionals to describe their patient. This patient Maymay published the term on social media which then made everyone assume they (unsure about pronouns) were the coiner. Maymay is a problematic system of the Internet and because of that people have been accusing people who use the term to be equally as problematic as them. Which to me is just another way to silence us again. This also isn't the first time that programmed systems get called highly complex. In the book "Becoming yourself" by Allison Miller from the year 2014 she already describes them as such in the introduction of the book. (Disclaimer that Miller is a conspiracy theorist but the book is a good book for survivors to read)
Continuing with sidesystems. I've seen many people say that it doesn't make sense it's programmed exclusive. Most non programmed systems I see using sidesystems use it in a way of subsystems that are separate. And to that I just advice you to look into the 4 types of subsystems (or shoot me an ask and I will see to explain them in a post). Subsystems can present in many different ways. But sidesystems are separate from that.
Sidesystems are systems within one body that are programmed to be completely separated from the other subsystem and sidesystems. Most often Sidesystems are completely unaware of the existence of other Sidesystems this is due to how they were made. They have extreme amnesia barriers to ensure that programmed information or information about the abuse doesn't get to the outside. Sidesystems are made and contain only programmed parts.
Sidesystems aren't just separate subsystems they have major differences in structure and amnesia/dissociative barriers. You can be a non programmed system and experience subsystems with heavy amnesia between them who are contained to one part of the innerworld and are separate. But you cannot experience Sidesystems who are made by torture based mind control.
Why do we feel the need to kick down to survivors who already are at their lowest? Can we please start listening and stop talking over other experiences?

this flag is exclusive to those who are programmed/have gone through some kind of programming. this flag was not made with negative or harmful intentions in mind, this was just a descriptor of our own gender as we recover.

I hate the idea that people should be expected to rejoin a religi0n that hurt them. It’s INSANE to me
“But it’s the people” whose weapon of choice was the Qur@n.
“all@h wouldn’t want xy&z” genuinely idgaf about what your imaginary friend would have wanted. If you think for a SECOND that I’m going to turn back to that fuckass cult, you’ve truly lost your mind.
@snowchester-system I'm going to need you to be so fr right now.
You are 15. You will always be 15 until your 16th birthday. A host change does not suddenly change or further brain development. Your physical brain is only as developed as a 15 year old brain. You are not 27 and will never be 27 until your 27th birthday. A different alter fronting or hosting cannot change brain development. You are 15. You are a *child.* A *minor.*
I honestly see this as an attempt to deflect responsibility by acting as if your Wilbur is not responsible for your actions as Tommy. New flash: you're all responsible for your actions. I also see this as an attempt to appear more authoritative and trustworthy, especially after I called you out for being racist and stating that you will be seen as less trustworthy as a self-proclaimed educator because of your actions.
Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, I'd like to remind you all that this is the same person I called out for being racist and pushing negative stereotypes against Latinos, specifically Mexicans and those with Mexican heritage. Not even 24 hours I made that post, they go and do this.
This is a blatantly racist action and they deserve to be called out for this. I am a Mexican American system, but I am just one person. I highly encourage other Mexican or Latino systems out there to spread awareness about this issue regarding this individual, and I encourage you all to make your own posts about this situation and sharing your thoughts. Frankly, I encourage anyone that supports the Latino community to do the same. I am tired of being treated like a joke because of my ethnicity and I am tired of my language being used to mock me.
Suspected ASPD system culture is being an OA survivor so whenever the programs get triggered you dont emote anything from your breakdown so you just go “oh cool, more things to discover” while you crash down for being forced to be a rock on a shoe
You can say what you want but Kali, Jane and Henry were all RAMCOA coded to me and the fact none of them got happy endings really says a lot about how non traumatized people view survivors.
