In today's #coffeewithatherapist, we are talking about the ways we can identify or connect the dots when it comes to our behaviors that indicate that we've had trauma.
FIRST - I'd recommend working with a professional that specializes in trauma, as these things can be complex, and often our brain can shield us/encodes trauma memories different than other memories (and there's a good reason for that).
Some reasons we may struggle to connect the dots:
1. Trauma memories are encoded differently
2. Often childhood trauma is invalidated and normalized "every kid gets bullied"
3. Intergenerational trauma (trauma that happened to the generations before us) can often be passed down in subtle ways
