It Is Never The Child's Fault ( Overt Or Covert Sexual Abuse )

    Many men & women in recovery for sex, love, romance addiction or co-sex addiction do not recall
    or remember being sexually abused in their past lives & this is especially true for people new to recovery.

    For some  dissociation  which is now called  The Split  or leaving your body is responsible.

    Another reason could be what is called  displacement  or making it into something else.

    Sexual compulsivity   also obscures victimization which could be another reason why some addicts
    do not recall or recollect past life covert or overt sexual abuse events or episodes.

    The fact that they have entered into recovery for sexual addiction is a signpost of past life
    covert or overt abuse in one form or another whether they are aware of it or not.

    Any type of overt or covert  abuse  can cause people to become addicted to sex, love, romance
    or become co-sexually addicted.

    The abuse does not have to be overt or covert sexual abuse, molestation, rape or incest.

    If the abuse is not dealt with in this generation it will be acted out by someone in the family
    in later generations which could also be a reason someone suffers from sexual addiction
    or what is called " The Sins Of The Fathers " or " Family Secrets ".

    In other words if someone in your family was sexually abused in past generations & they did not
    deal with it back then you could be acting it out in your generation even though you never personally
    experienced the hands on sexual abuse yourself which is really deep counselor & therapist stuff.

    John Bradshaw has excellent audio tapes & CD's on  incest & sexual addiction  which explain in detail what
    happens to people who were sexually abused or incest ed as children & how that set them up to become
    sex, love, romance addicts or co-sex addicts later on in life without evening knowing that
    due to their  denial  &  delusion  & other  defense mechanisms  which are very powerful over them.

    Clearly, not all sex, love, romance addicts or co-sex addicts were sexually abused or incest ed as children.

    If you feel you were sexually abused as a child & that set you up to become sexually addicted
    or co-sexually addicted rest assured you are not alone.

    It is estimated that one out of four children in America boys & girls alike become sexually abused by someone
    before they reach the age of eighteen & 80% of them know who their violator was.

    If this is the case with you we recommend that you call a professional counselor or therapist
    for expert advice & treatment as sexual abuse or incest is very serious & not something
    any twelve step recovery program or it's recovering members are qualified to deal with let alone advise you on.

    Professional counseling & therapy is absolutely necessary for all sexual abuse, rape, molestation & incest
    victims in the beginning of the recovery process.

    Researchers estimate that 67% of all people men & women alike who participate
    in 12 Step Recovery Programs for alcoholism, drug addiction, other types of addictions
    & codependency are more than likely past life overt or covert abuse victims including sexual abuse.

    Sex, Love or Romance Addiction are said to be the most powerful addictions of them all.

    They are always the very last addictions people in recovery for other problems
    such as codependency, alcoholism or drug addiction self identify in themselves.

    Recovery work for these types of problems is difficult to say the very least.

    John Bradshaw makes it real clear that sexual abuse is the very worst thing that could ever be done to a child.

    " It affects them adversely for every day of the rest of their lives."

    He says " they may as well have just taken a gun & shot them."  Child Abusers  PTSD
