Beschreibung

Uncovering, accepting, and healing this childhood trauma will allow you to let go of the pain, releasing yourself from the guilt, shame, and self-destruction you have been living with. This book will provide you with tools and strategies to heal your childhood trauma allowing you to live fully.

Do you feel like your life has gotten out of control, and despite all your efforts to keep it together, there's something inside you that just wants to burst out in rage and anger?

Does it torture you to feel like you cannot trust anyone around you--that ultimately everyone will end up hurting you, and that you're better off alone?

Do you constantly enter endless cycles where you blame yourself for every bad thing that has ever happened to you, to the point where you feel that you can't even trust yourself anymore?

Those questions and feelings are just a sample of what people who have endured unresolved childhood trauma experience every day of their lives.

It may be draining, and you may feel overwhelmed by the heavy weight of those shadows of the past that still haunt every choice you make, every relationship you choose, every decision you take... always pulling you down and seriously limiting your potential.

It may be difficult to admit to yourself that you need change, but the mere fact that you're even thinking about it takes a great amount of courage--only by the conscious decision to embrace pain will things finally begin to get better.

Did you know that an estimate of 35 million children in the United States has experienced one or more types of childhood trauma?

The sad part is that most of those people will never get the proper guidance and care to actually heal and move forward with their lives.

But this doesn't mean it'll be the same for you. And unknowingly, you may have already started paving the way to begin your healing journey and finally rebuild a life away from the shackles of the past.

INTRODUCTION

Childhood trauma is defined as an incident, scenario, or setting that occurred as a youngster that left you feeling vulnerable and as if you couldn't rely on the world or other people to keep you safe.

Childhood trauma has the unpleasant side effect of influencing your ways of thinking and responding to the world and others as an adult for many people. This might imply that you find life stressful and difficult in ways that you cannot explain intellectually.

It is critical to dispel any myths about childhood trauma involving just physical risk or injury. Trauma occurs when a youngster feels alone, vulnerable, overwhelmed, or afraid.

Psychological trauma arises as a result of your unique experience and viewpoint on what occurred to you, not because of the 'facts' of 'what really happened.'

Childhood Trauma: Visible vs. Hidden

Experiences are traumatic because they are unexpected and unwelcome, and you have no control over them. Among the obvious traumas that tend to affect everyone concerned, including children, are:

i. The death or sickness of a loved one

ii. A natural disaster

iii. An accident

iv. Physical abuse

v. Being uprooted and migrating to a new nation

However, even less evident childhood traumas can be just as stressful for a kid and have just as devastating long-term implications.

These can include environmental issues such as:

i. Living in poverty

ii. Changing schools abruptly

iii. A sick sibling

iv. Going through surgery

v. Living with parents who are often squabbling and fighting

vi. Living in a violent or hazardous neighborhood

vii. Seeing a parent being harmed

Or they might be emotional traumas such as:

i. A humiliating event at school

ii. Being bullied

iii. Constantly being put down and chastised by a parent figure

iv. Not receiving adequate attention from a caregiver

v. Having to care for a parent

vi. Being ignored

vii. Being abandoned by someone you love

Unfortunately, sexual abuse is an all-too-common kind of childhood trauma. Furthermore, many types of sexual assault go unnoticed.

It is widely recognized that any sort of improper sexual behavior can have long-term harmful consequences for a kid. Being stripped naked as a punishment for being 'bad,' for example, or having a parent who constantly makes improper comments about your body, can both result in long-term trauma symptoms.

But, aren't kids resilient?

It is wrong to believe that a youngster will not be influenced by what they do not comprehend. Even though a youngster does not grasp the mechanics of what is going on, they may sense danger and conflict, which is what produces trauma.

According to research, even newborns are influenced by stress in their environment, such as the suffering of their caretakers. In reality, children are more prone to trauma than adults because they can detect danger but cannot 'understand' it to themselves like adults, so they feel more afraid and vulnerable.

Did I Experience Childhood Trauma? Symptoms to Watch For

Not everyone reacts the same way to trauma. Some individuals recall every detail of what happened, while others completely erase everything out of their minds and lose all memory of the incident.

Some people have numerous symptoms from infancy on, while others have no signs of trauma until they are adults and then something triggers them. This might be a new hard work, a new relationship, or another life catastrophe such as a bereavement or split.

In general, symptoms to look for as an adult indicating you experienced childhood trauma include, but are not limited to:

i. Chronic sadness and/or anxiety

ii. Mood swings and/or an overreaction propensity

iii. Difficulties controlling stress

iv. A fundamental perception that the world is hazardous

v. Difficulties trusting people

vi. An unexplainable sensation of loneliness and isolation

vii. Inability to establish long-term and rewarding relationships

viii. Constantly feeling numb or as if you are 'watching' yourself

ix Insomnia and/or persistent nightmares with recurring themes

x. Concentration difficulties

xi. An unexplainable sensation of loss and bereavement

xii. Aches and pains that are unexplained, as well as chronic exhaustion

xiii. Easily startled and frequently tense

xiv. Substance abuse (drugs, alcohol, and/or binge eating) and/or addictive behaviors

xv. Suffering from self-harm

Childhood Trauma-Related Mental Health Conditions

If you experienced childhood trauma, it is normal to have anxiety and sadness as an adult until you seek help to explore and process your experience.

Addiction, self-harm, suppressed rage or anger management challenges, and eating disorders are all frequent mental health issues.

The development of borderline personality disorder has been linked to sexual abuse in particular.

Some persons who survived childhood trauma develop PTSD symptoms. Although some victims of childhood trauma appear to live their entire lives with the signs of emotional shock, these symptoms can appear years after the incident.
