Childhood Trauma

It is time the conversation begins about childhood chronic trauma, I don’t want to compare my trauma to yours. I’d really like to find what there is that is similar and look for solutions,

What do some people have to deal with just by being born,what is or was your automatic baggage, and how or what did or do you use to cope.

Children in Foster Care most always have some type of trauma, even if all that was was them being removed. often they have side effects that happened while they were still growing

Mental illness is often hereditary, more children grow up with automatic side effects then most people realize

Cults, is the one I grew up in: damaging beliefs held over her head, that intensified as I got older.

Domestic Violence is a cycle, what kids normal was, easily becomes their life.

Addiction: often starts before a child is even born or at a very young age.

Sexual assault, often happens in childhood and if it’s someone close repeats over and over

Trafficking often starts in childhood

Color of skin factors into children’s lives

Immigration factors into those children’s lives.

Most of these topics have more compounded then just the basics

Poverty is a huge factor,

The conditions your born in, like neighborhood etc.

I’m starting on a venture to openly explore, I want to know more about the most vulnerable place in our lives, when our brains are not fully developed and we may not” just understand” . Similarities/ and then Solutions. What are you doing to cope, and who did you loose to the fight, more people are in this then you realize.

It might look like you can water it all down because you can’t see it boldly and clearly in all of these instances, back to back trauma is back to back trauma, especially in children. Whether we like it or not.
