Deep dives
What is trauma?
Trauma refers to a feeling of helplessness combined with abandonment by potential caregivers. It is not determined by the event itself, but by the subjective experience of powerlessness and betrayal. Trauma changes the physical structures of the mind and body, and the severity of trauma lies in how the brain and body subjectively experience the event.
