Tonight's special guest is Amanda Carpenter from Nampa, Idaho, a new NAASCA family member who'll be sharing her story with us for the first time. "When I was two or three years old," she says, "there was an abuse situation with someone I knew and I did not remember this until I was 16 years old. I had already been forced to have this person in my life this whole time." About 60% of child sex abuse happens with a family or an extended family member. "I was also moved to Boise abruptly and in a traumatic way when I was 13, so both of those things combined caused me to start making bad choices. I was isolated after I moved. I also had head trauma. I damaged my frontal cortex, which is the part of the brain we use for making decisions," Amanda explains. "The moving here was a result of me messing with witchcraft. I had a lot of very very dark years. I have had a lot of trauma over my whole life because there was a generational curses of neglect in my family. My mom ignored my trauma and her own," she notes. "We have addictions in my family as a result of us not acknowledging our trauma. I'm the only one that has, and I am the only one who has done drugs." It's not at all unusual for a person to use drugs and alcohol as way to bear their trauma. "I am now in recovery and thriving. I LIVE to help other women get out of trafficking and occult environments, I want to help shut down the sex trafficking and voyeurism arena in my local area."
