 Quoting: Sol-tari


Extreme trauma for everyone is a before/after event. Whether that be abuse, death of loved one, sickness, car accident, natural disaster, etc..

There was the person you were before the event, and the person you are after. While they remain the same, perception changes which alters the attitude/mood/personality of the person dealing with the trauma.

The five stages of grieving over the loss, then comes into play. And the person then either moves forward with the trauma in tow or allows it to consume them as they sink deeper into self destruction and dispair.

Alcohol and drugs take the edge off, so many go that route. Some turn to their belief in God. Some take it out on others.

Round and round we go.
 Quoting: Seer777


I looked into this a bit. There is a difference between a one-time traumatic event and a repeated trauma that goes on and on. Dissociation is the likely result of the latter - if it happens over and over again, the mind's way of coping with an unbearable reality.

With a one-time shock trauma that doesn't repeat, flash-backs and hypernesia tends to be the result. With repeated trauma over a longer period of time, amnesia and dissociation tend to occur.
