Understanding Trauma and Its Effects
Trauma, whether significant or seemingly minor, has profound effects on one's sense of self and emotional well-being. Experiencing events like bullying, even if not labeled 'big T' trauma, can lead to individuals suppressing their authentic selves to feel safe. This disconnection from identity can have physiological effects comparable to more severe trauma, especially when such experiences occur repeatedly over time. Recognizing that both forms of trauma can lead to a similar suppression of self helps in understanding the broader implications on mental and physical health.
