Understanding Trauma

Trauma refers to an emotional response to a deeply distressing or disturbing event that overwhelms an individual’s ability to cope. Examples include abuse, accidents, loss, or ongoing stressors like discrimination or systemic inequities.

Possible Triggers: Triggers are stimuli that remind individuals of past traumatic experiences, leading to emotional or physical reactions. Common triggers include:
Specific sounds, smells, or sights.

Certain words, tones of voice, or gestures.
Places or situations reminiscent of the traumatic event.
