5 Examples of Trauma We Often Dismiss

Have you ever wondered if you had experienced trauma but didn't realize it? In this eye-opening video, we learn examples of trauma that often go unnoticed or ignored. From childhood trauma, unhealed trauma, complex trauma (CPTSD) to post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), we explore the complexity of unhealed emotional wounds and examples of trauma that we often unintentionally ignore.

Join us as we uncover the layers of traumatic experiences, deepening our understanding of mental health and the need for compassion.

Hope it is useful. Thank You.
