People in trauma would be strongly subjective about their experience with unfortunate events, and it is most clearly visible in case of disasters where a wide spectrum of the population becomes exposed to the same traumatic experience. Differences in individual temperaments and abilities to cope with stress and disaster will lead to different responses to a given traumatic experience. The purest meaning of trauma can be that of being exposed to life-threatening experiences. Trauma generated terror, horror and pain. Persons who are not directly threatened may show signs of being traumatized by simply being exposed to violations by people or institutions that they depend on or repose their trust in. Trauma may affect you directly or indirectly. Persons who have been betrayed by someone that they have depended on for survival may suffer trauma, and good examples of such instances include sexually abused children as well as war veterans. Such traumatic responses may manifest themselves in psychogenic amnesia and one way to alleviate such a condition would be to forget as well as maintain a posture of confidence to overcome the feelings of betrayal and being let down that a person experiences. Trauma can affect children as well as adults. Trauma can be direct as well as indirect. Trauma can take place in any way. It can be in the form of a natural disaster or an accident. It may affect you physically and mentally. It may also happen that you have no direct connection to the happened event but it may affect your mind badly for example any natural disaster like tsunami may disturb you even though you or your loved one have not been affected by this. Trauma counseling can help both adults and children who all react in different and individual ways to a traumatic event. |
