Understanding Trauma Symptoms in Men

Men often struggle to recognize the symptoms of trauma, as many equate these symptoms solely with extreme reactions like flashbacks or panic attacks. However, trauma can manifest in subtler ways, such as heightened reactivity or unexplained anger towards loved ones. This includes moments where a man may lash out unnecessarily after a long day, triggered by unresolved implicit memories linked to previous experiences. A greater awareness of these signs can empower men to identify and address trauma in their lives, understanding that everyone has experienced some form of wound.
