This chapter presents ten essential insights for healthcare providers regarding the impact of childhood trauma on individuals. It highlights the importance of empathetic communication and the potential for healing, while also acknowledging the dedication of caring medical professionals.
For a lot of people who were abused or neglected in childhood, going to the doctor is a huge trigger. The questions they ask, the fact that they need to TOUCH you, and the control they have over whether or not you get to HAVE help at all – it can feel overwhelming, invasive, accusatory, demeaning, invalidating. Most doctors – even though they are trained – don’t yet have a meaningful, working knowledge of the ADULT effects of childhood trauma. In this video I talk about the gap in what is *known* about the adult effects of childhood trauma, and the way it is acknowledged and treated. I leave you with clear recommendations you can share with your doctor the next time you visit, to make sure they understand how past trauma affects your health today.
