The inability of a child to thrive in a Constitutionally protected God based perpetual threat and rape culture is not a fault of the child; however it does become their odious responsibility upon reaching adulthood. The Christian religion at it's core is a toxic mechanism whereby intergenerational trauma has been kept alive, active and deeply embedded in each new generation over the past 2,000+ years.

Is yours inflated or atrophied? Yes your Amygdala, both of them
Inflated or atrophied is bad for you and modern medicine has a drug just for that or so goes the gateway experience of psychology and psychiatry in its attempts to deal with its own silence for decades about the sexual abuse of children that was rife throughout institutions right across Australia for much much more than those decades including the period of your own childhood education and any engagement with a cult or religion.
Amygdala are meant to be a specific size unrelated to your body or brain weight and in just a few minutes your GP will be able to tell you that your Amygdala is in need of dramatic treatment so that real healing can begin for you.
Trying to deal with those conflicts very often drove you toward further education in those fields. and now you are qualified and out there making a difference and what better place to make a difference than those who have been sexually abused as children by clergy.
No crime touches the fear one feels when attempting to engage with a victim of criminal abuse by a member of your church or even a priest to whom you went to confession on many occasions. Why you even snitched a little and lo-and-behold there was a karma moment not long after when your perceived enemy got the justice they deserved for their infractions against you or those you care about or those that were identified as deserving of your hatred and anger by those in positions of power and authority over you.
Now here you are all educated and in position to make a difference and into your office comes a survivor of childhood sexual abuse by Catholic clergy seeking your professional services.
You are so confident in your knowledge and position that you too are like many of your professional counterparts and you can diagnose inside the first 5 minutes and then spend the rest of the session backing up the result of the cheap biased training that got you to where you are today.
It's more about what brain chemical should we treat or do you just give the current standard now that PTSD, ADHD, Bi-Polar, Schizophrenia and a growing list have all been worked to death along with so many of those diagnosed and chemically treated for these major biological imbalances. You are really amazing that you can do all of that in 15 minutes and collect your reward and move on to the next person you are treating.
Diagnosis v. Data
The diagnosis process is a rudimentary weapon in the hands of the ignorant but at least they know that they only have to tick 3 or 4 check boxes off the proposed disease and there you have a sound diagnosis and a medical regime to follow.
If your practitioner used basic arithmetic with the assistance of a set of procedures to validate the diagnosis even though there is no need for this as like you your professional friends are very very supportive and understanding of how off the scale some people can get so protecting yourself and your professional circles is a first and primary priority; besides you don't have the time to analyse everything and the client if they have not been incapacitated or sectioned can always seek a second opinion. Besides it's you who is doing them a favour as a part of your humanitarian work and those who don't respond as they are supposed to or those who have different perspectives than you are not worth wasting your time with.
Of course you are justified in taking the actions you took; besides you have not really hurt anyone and you have been doing your best under extreme pressure, as well some people find taking these medications to be just the bees knees. It's just a matter of trial and error and any adverse side effects usually wear off after a while.
A diagnosis using the DSM is about as random as it can get. The art is to find a check list where you can tick up to 4 or 5 options and there you have a diagnosis.
Today a diagnosis of Anxiety, Depression, Suicidal,Bi-Polar, Schizophrenia, ADHD and hundreds more listed in the DSM should be as precise as the results you get from a full DNA readout. No room for guesses, culture, personal biases or issues to get in the way that could color the issue. No need to protect a poorly performing fellow professional who is just having a bad trot with stress at the moment - perhaps a new colouring book or more meditation for them and we must ask them to dinner perhaps to help take their mind off their issues.
The world of the weird is a basic human game. It does not become egregious until the harm it can and does create can bee seen and examined taking into account a wider range of things than you may have been taught to consider during your internship.
It should not be too difficult to sort this all out.

The DSM has around thousand traits or symptoms, maybe more and a collection of 5 or thereabouts is sufficient to diagnose a brain chemical imbalance requiring introducing chemicals into the brain to alter it's functionality.
There you are with your GP or psychiatrist and they are saying I think we need to medicate you with something that has the potential to permanently change your brain. I want to try X and if that does not work we can adjust the dosage or there are many other drugs we can try and now you are becoming defensive as your client (who is not paying) is asking for something more credible, more scientific and is asking what tests are needed to be run? Should you be having EEG or fMRI tests to back up your supposition.
Then they are asking if their is a printout along the lines of a DNA or even a blood report that shows the steps taken and reasons why you want to have this person take these drugs.
You know that it can keep some off marijuana or alcohol and that can only b a good thing and besides it's the governments fault as priests have been raping children for so long that it is an accepted part of the culture and it is disturbing when you get to meet someone whose human rights have been cheated from them and the government is not doing anything. If it was me I would be taking a lot more than the small amount this chemical that I am recommending.
Should your Psychiatrist, GP, Counselor or Psychologist be entered into the Miss or Mr Iatrogenesis 2018?
Now your client is asking about data and how process it. They are inferring that you have not engaged in a proper scientific process to come to a guestimate that requires submission to brain altering chemicals with unknown and known side effects that include suicide, murder and extreme and bizarre violence and there is no greater requirement than it's your opinion and the law will back you up if necessary.
It all sounds a little totalitarian but most of of all it is most likely to result in a misdiagnosis of the most vulnerable people you are engaging with and it has very little evidence and a long list of complaints and disastrous life taking negative life changing outcomes. But of course you opinion is the result of your training and your need for turnover does not allow you the privilege of peering too deeply and your motivations are impeccable so yes surely this person does need medicating quickly.
From the clients perspective your guess is as good as anyone's who goes by a random collection of perceptions that have not been confirmed via any testing a few check boxes not only diagnose but also recommend a very specific form of treatment that has profound life-long effects on the people you think you are helping.
Wrong does not come much bigger when a diagnosis of a survivor of childhood trauma, sexual and physical abuse and a constant state of trauma through an entire childhood followed by 50+ years of the denial of their right to justice and proper redress because their abusers were religious.
If you have not put your own house in order completely and you have a reliance on the basics of evidence gathering instead of the guessed at opinion simply because there are no standards beyond the lucky dip roll of the dice first ten minutes encounter with someone you are trusting your entire well being, recovery and your safety and protection and by extension the safety and the protection of many more children from protected unrecognized predators in the community.
First do no harm needs a serious rethinking to help break its habit of aiding the abuser and punishing the victims through our legal systems, political and governance systems right on through to medical and mental health worlds treatment of those of us who experienced abuse as children by clergy here in Australia.
Next the client will be asking that if the Amaygdala is so strongly connected with violence in humans why are you recommending helping to get it backup to its usual size? Alas there was no check list to tick for that and no algorithm or digital analysis with an evidence based report that clearly identifies each and every diagnosis in the DSM and the empirical evidence that supports it and the software to do a consistent analysis based on input and consultation with the client instead of a ten minute guess based on what appears to be confirmation bias and unresolved personal issues of the professional..
Dare you ask if there was any consideration given to the primary essential steps to take when in a professional relationship with a survivor of childhood sexual abuse by the religious. How do they go. 1. Stabilize, 2. Safety .
The need to stabilize are does not require drug treatment. Stability for almost every client comes as a result of providing step 2 before any assertions or considerations should be considered as it is this aspect that has caused your client anxiety and brings about their depression. Consultation with the survivor is essential as you are not able to define what safety is for the individual. What is worse is that it is at this point that righteous judgement usually comes in and the need to drug and silence this person becomes your obsession along with the many others remaining active participants in the same religious as the abusers of your client.
Defining safety and how that might be achieved is a duty and a responsibility that professionals have towards their clients. It begins the steps toward building trust and in understanding and providing your best for your clients.
But surely you are beyond that. Surely. Trust me. we have got it right this time and its just for you.
If you thought it was safe enough would you send a link on to others in the hope of getting the message spread a little wider or would you dare to take the risk of financially supporting me to get this understanding to a wider audience.
Adverse Childhood Religious Experiences should be examined in the same ways that adverse childhood events are examined in the ACE (Adverse Childhood Experience) test.
For me the most egregious experience is to have your mind hijacked by layer up layer of sophistry, bribery, blackmail, obfuscation, hiding behind religion, protecting yourself and protecting others and protecting the good name and the financial position of a very damaged church.
How do you as a professional help support the victims in their struggle to bring the horror of these things to the attention of the appropriate authorities so that the safety as defined by the survivor in step 2 can be provided to them without causing the next religious armageddon or causing the majority of Catholicism to slip a little closer to their own personal hell at the mere mention of it. Horror on this scale by a religion does require much more than the business as usual that the Catholic and others Churches and religious and other institutions said to be proactive and stepping out the in order to protect the rights of the present day children.
There must be no demand my by the religious or their gods, demons, saints, scriptures or other that could diminish in any way the right of children to reach adulthood without any form of religious emotional or psychological coercion.
When the personal right to freedom of thinking and safety of body and mind is put on the line the greatest noise comes from the Vatican,or governments and local Catholic bishops pushing this foreign country's political and religious agendas via the hospitals, welfare and education that government funding has put into their hands that are being used as weapons against the rights of children and survivors to be free from being the trade goods of the Catholic hierarchy under their claim to be connected with a benevolent and all powerful God being the only reason to stop funding them until they can get to bring their house into order..
That horse has bolted and hatred is obvious and growing at the same exponential rate as the hypocrisy of a religion forgiving itself and the criminals it generated and protected for years for generations of child rape, abuse and denial the human rights in almost every country on the face of the planet while proclaiming to be bringing the perfect word of their God and his requirements. I is quite the most absurd, horrific abuse of human rights possible yet few are willing to put this issue on the public table for proper open discussion and input from the people and the survivors - of course one child is too many but this is too much obviously.
Are survivors of childhood sexual and other abuses by the religious and others in institutions safe enough yet to come out publicly?
As at Wednesday, April 25, 2018 11:50:48 AM I can only unfortunately say that this is a consideration that is too much for most professionals to engage with and naturally it outrages the bishops, and the popes of a foreign nation.
Begs the question how could a Royal Commission miss out on so much.? Easy. Set the terms of reference to step around those and the involvement of police whose inspirational investigative precision has yet to be proclaimed with regard to how they are managing the issue of people of religion investigation and making policy when perpetrators or hierarchy or members of clergy of the same religion.
The greatest responsibility issue about the rights of children is currently being swept under the table and out of site and consideration of the largest criminal disclosure since federation are the facts of the moment and that is why the right os of children to be free is being lost to those who would protect their rapists and their ability to forgive them before the rights of the children these rapists used to satisfy their aberrant sexual obsessions.
If you thought it was safe enough would you send a link on to others in the hope of getting the message spread a little wider or would you dare to take the risk of financially supporting me to get this understanding to a wider audience.
