Hi Steve and welcome to the forum. I didn't know that about Sinead O'Connor being on medication nowadays. When I read her interview back in 1991 I recognized a lot of the same views and opinions and she mentioned Alice Miller and John Bradshaw. And when I read Miller, I also realized Sinead didn't u...

I'm reading Primal Healing and it has a lot of good stuff. I just want to quote a case study that shows how these different levels of pain are connected and need to be expressed all the way. Case Study: Nathan (page 120 - 122) I've been on edge lately. Actually, I've been losing it really, but with ...

Karin , thanks for explaining more about your background and ideas. I suppose the personal questions to Alice Miller can only be answered by herself. Like you, I also wondered who her team is. On her old Forum there was one web designer called Monique who answered sometimes. But nowadays, the team ...

We only know Alice Miller as a writer and she writes from the perspective of the child. But the danger is that she let the child consciousness take over and react as a child. That's okay of course, but it would be nice if she admits that later. The more I think of it, the more I realize how little A...

You wrote: ?Miller has said several times that you can't demand a response from anyone and if you do, it's abusive.? Very strange!!?? Isn?t this exactly as it could have been with our parents once??? You were not allowed to question them or ask (maybe not even kindly or quietly) for an explanation ...

Karin , it's unfair how you were treated at ourchildhood.int I suppose originally the idea was to have people talk about their childhood hurt without other people commenting on it, in a pedagogical way. In my opinion all one could say were things that validated the hurt and confirming the wrongness...

I started a new thread for this... Therapy is often a jungle in which rules are blurred and clarity absent. There are many scenarios where things went wrong and patients are not protected enough. I really believe that when things do go well, it's an exception. But the sad thing is that people who ar...

Thanks for your story, Silvis. A therapist cannot force anyone to feel the old pain but a good therapist knows when to push and when to hold back. I'm sure that some people didn't realize there was much more pain from their lives than they realized. Like you said, ' I mean the level of pain in some ...

Hi Skai and welcome to the forum. As you say, the whole movement of manipulating memories into positive ones is blaming the victim all over again but also protecting the perpetrator. In my opinion when people are stuck into thinking and cannot connect to their feelings, depression appears and repres...

The interview of Loftus by Wim Kayzer mentioned in this thread is now available for direct download, 380 mb. Send a pm to me and I'll give you the link and password. Mind you that the quality isn't great and it comes with Dutch subtitles. The bits of Dutch narration are translated by me into English...

This site is called: Breaking Down Walls of Silence, not Breaking Down Cesar Tort

I fail to see your point

Dennis

First of all I have a hard time understanding the information presented on that site because of its structure and layout bloopers. And the random reaching out to a variety of irrelevant scientific studies, including the bogus statements of Loftus, did not much for me to be convinced. The criticism t...

The forum of the site http://antipsychiatrie.freepgs.com hasn't been active since January and the site gets fewer hits than this one. Originally I wanted to start a Dutch Forum to lead the people to, who emailed me with questions regarding my articles and requesting more info. But I suppose there's ...

Maybe I wasn't clear when I said that these events (arson) were cries for help before they move on to murder and such atrocities. I'm sure there were smaller cries for help before the arson as well. These people feel so trapped and helpless, that they finally grab the attention in the most destructi...

Hey Vikki, I think for most people who suffer from some kind of mental illness, they usually come to a point of not being able to go any further and they need immediate help. Traditional therapy cannot provide that and if there was some list with registered people who can provide a safe haven just t...
