Post Traumatic Church Disorder | Understanding Religious Coercive Control

In order to gain a better understanding of religious coercive control it is important to understand post traumatic church disorder.
In this episode of Prey versus Predator, with our guest Sarah, we discuss the impact of coercive religions and relationships on individuals, focusing on the concept of 'Post Traumatic Church Syndrome.' Sarah, from Sacred Unraveling, shares her personal story of leaving a coercive religion and an abusive relationship. She describes how both experiences had profound effects on her mental health, self-esteem, and ability to recognize and respond to red flags. Sarah outlines her journey of deconstruction - critically examining and re-evaluating her beliefs, leading to a process of healing and empowerment.
In the second part of the episode, Sarah highlights the importance of having resources and language to understand and articulate experiences with coercion and abuse. Through Sacred Unraveling, Sarah aims to provide support and hope to others in similar situations, offering insights on recognizing abuse, reclaiming personal power, and the path to recovery. The discussion emphasizes the role of community, awareness, and the empowering realization that survivors have voices and choices.
