This is Why We Must Redefine Trauma

The care that you didn’t receive in childhood can be experienced as traumatic too.

In childhood, you depend wholly on your caregivers to meet all of your physical and emotional needs.

Growing up with caregivers who are emotionally immature, neglectful, or unresponsive creates distress.

The times that you felt helpless, hopeless, and alone in getting your needs met can have far reaching ripple effects.

You may have learned that people are unreliable and cannot be trusted to show up for you.

As an result, in adulthood, you may hide your feelings, be overly self-reliant, or avoid emotional connection because it feels unsafe.
