Trauma
The effects of trauma can stay with you long after an event has passed, affecting how you feel, respond and connect with others. Support can help you understand these responses, process what you’ve experienced and begin to feel safer again.
Challenge
- Have you experienced a traumatic event?
- Do you wake up with nightmares or bad dreams?
- Are you being triggered by certain external things (loud noises, etc)?
- Do you have difficulty telling people what is going on for you?
People who have experienced trauma often have difficulty identifying, expressing and managing emotions. For a person with a complex trauma history, reminders of various traumatic events may be everywhere in the environment. They may often react powerfully and have difficulty calming down when upset.
