Trauma, or psychological trauma is emotional damage..
caused by an amount of stress that simply exceeds your bodies psychic ability to cope.
This is also an individual experience, as every person has different coping skills and levels of tolerance to stress and each person will react differently in any given experience.
Your experience is real, genuine…
and can be easily dealt with, because it is not so much about what you experienced, but more about your reaction to what you experienced.

The recent Bush Fire experience has significantly impacted a large number of people, some in extremely traumatic ways.
Every person will deal with traumatic events in different ways, from intensely suffering to total emotional shutdown.
If you find an event is constantly on your mind or in your awareness, then this is an indicator that you may be carrying some event that requires discussing.
After traumatic experiences, some people have reminders of their experience that impact in a variety of different ways.
These reminders are called triggers.
Some people are unaware that they are experiencing their trigger’s, and this will impact their behaviour in nearly all aspects of their lives.
Unresolved triggered reactions and the shame that comes afterwards is a common symptom behind abusive behaviour, substance abuse, alcohol abuse and a myriad of other patterns.
If you find yourself triggered or “over reacting” in certain circumstances, especially if your reaction is out of character or unnecessarily intense, then this may be an indicator of suppressed trauma.
