The experiences that build the dissociational curse are often repeated in small ways. They are ongoing experiences of a certain sort of trauma. Because they are so often repeated they appear quiet 'natural' to our social groupings. If someone in the group, that is, family, does not have a voice that is accepted as natural and right. It becomes 'enforced' by social norms if we try to break this ancient pattern!
Us as the 'victim' often accept this social reality, this ancestral family 'truth.' 'That is just the way things are.' That means that, as a child, one just accepts that this is the reality of our life, of being you, of how others did not 'see' you. That means years of emotional experience being laid down in our emotional brains before we ever get a 'mind of our own' to question and think for ourselves.
This makes this "curse of dissociation" much more ingrained into the our psyche. The core root belief system of the child subjected to dissociation is going to choose to accept or unconsciously accept the implication of the dissociational messages. The implications of that message are devastating to our self-worth, our expectations of our self, others and the world surrounding us, of our basic right to be alive, well, healthy and prospering.
