Much of what happens within the forensic context of organized or ritual abuse is perpetrated, by necessity, in secret. The principal survival strategy for the victim child is dissociation, leading to a fragmented sense of self leading to DID (Dissociative Identity Disorder), amnestic blanks in an autobiographical narrative, and disorganized attachment patterns. ‘Rediscovering Eden’ is an account of the therapeutic journey of a DID survivor of ritual abuse in coming to terms with the events during her early adolescence surrounding the birth and ensuing murder of her baby.
