This Gen Z\u2019er has a pretty good life, I thought.<\/p>\n\n<h5>WHAT IS TRAUMA?<\/h5>\n<p>Although we use the word <em>\u201ctrauma\u201d<\/em> more readily these days than we did five years ago, it\u2019s far from clear to everyone what it actually is\u2014right, teenage <em>daughter<\/em>? \ud83d\ude09 Even professionals use a wide variety of definitions, which doesn\u2019t make things any easier if you\u2019re not yet familiar with trauma work. So let me start at the beginning: when we talk about trauma these days, we\u2019re talking about <em>psychological trauma<\/em>, unless you work in healthcare. In that context, trauma refers to physical injury. When I speak of trauma, I always mean <strong>psychological trauma<\/strong>.    <\/p>\n\n<h5>LONG-TERM INSECURITY OR IMPACT TRAUMA<\/h5>\n<p>When we talk about <em>psychological trauma<\/em>, what exactly is it?<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">&#8220;I see trauma as: the (unconscious) consequences of unresolved pain or feelings of insecurity that negatively affect your daily life and how you view yourself, others, and the world.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>There are two types of psychological trauma:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>An impact injury<\/li>\n<li>Long-term insecurity<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p> <\/p>\n<p>And trauma can be caused by:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>People<\/li>\n<li>Nature<\/li>\n<li>Life (e.g., your body, work, etc.)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p> <\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s break it down. Unresolved pain or feelings of insecurity can stem from <strong>a single traumatic event<\/strong>: an accident, a natural disaster, or the loss of a loved one. They can also be shaped by <strong>prolonged insecurity<\/strong>. For example, by a <a href=\"https:\/\/ontdekjeheiligegraal.com\/en\/what-is-emotional-pain-trying-to-tell-you\/\">persistent feeling of rejection<\/a>, neglect, or being bullied. When people think of trauma, they often immediately think of that specific, impactful event. In my practice, I often hear: \u201cBut Rianne, I really haven\u2019t experienced anything bad.\u201d And while I certainly don\u2019t want to convince anyone they have trauma, we\u2019re often unaware that much of our trauma stems from <em>prolonged insecurity<\/em><em>.<\/em> These are longer periods in our lives that were usually unsafe and\u2026 sometimes not. And that\u2019s incredibly confusing, which is why we don\u2019t recognize it as traumatic later in life. Because, when you\u2019re being bullied, you sometimes also have fun days at school. So: is it really traumatic? And when your parents are unpredictable or emotionally absent, they\u2019re also often kind and caring. So a traumatic childhood? Isn\u2019t that way too strong a statement? Plus: as a child, your parents are your heroes, from whom you learn what \u201cnormal\u201d life is. So the fact that they aren\u2019t always there for you, don\u2019t always provide emotional care, and don\u2019t always see you for who you are doesn\u2019t change the fact that your parents are \u201cgood people,\u201d \u201cdid their best,\u201d and you had a \u201cgood upbringing,\u201d right?              <\/p>\n\n<h5>PARENTS<\/h5>\n<p>In these examples of prolonged insecurity, <strong>parental figures<\/strong> play a significant role. And for good reason. Their presence or absence is crucial in the development or prevention of trauma. They should provide structural safety, <a href=\"https:\/\/ontdekjeheiligegraal.com\/en\/how-do-you-set-healthy-boundaries\/\">healthy boundaries<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/ontdekjeheiligegraal.com\/welke-behoeften-heb-ik\/\">autonomy<\/a>, healthy emotional regulation, physical care, and unconditional love. When this is (regularly) lacking, as a child you often feel alone, unseen, or <a href=\"https:\/\/ontdekjeheiligegraal.com\/en\/why-is-it-so-hard-to-give-recognition\/\">unacknowledged<\/a>. Or you feel like an outsider and don\u2019t really know what to do with your pain and worries. Trauma studies therefore show that trauma is not only caused by what was missing or what you received in excess, but primarily by whether you were left to cope alone or experienced support from parental figures.      <\/p>\n\n<h5>TRAUMA SYMPTOMS<\/h5>\n<p>Later in life, you may recognize long-standing insecurity in ways such as <a href=\"https:\/\/ontdekjeheiligegraal.com\/waarom-please-ik\/\">always wanting to please others<\/a>, taking on too much responsibility, struggling to break unhealthy habits or patterns, <a href=\"https:\/\/ontdekjeheiligegraal.com\/waarom-reageer-ik-soms-zo-fel\/\">quickly getting into conflicts with yourself or others<\/a>, or developing anxiety or other mental health issues. To name just a few symptoms of unresolved pain. <\/p>\n\n<p>So you often don\u2019t recognize trauma until <em>much later<\/em> in life, and usually through <em>indirect evidence<\/em>. And that\u2019s quite complicated, because this evidence usually doesn\u2019t point directly to unresolved pain or insecurity from the past. To see the connections between your unhealthy behavior, thoughts, and feelings in the present and what you experienced in the past, you often have to look at many different aspects of your life. Your <strong>attachment style<\/strong>, your <strong>survival or <a href=\"https:\/\/ontdekjeheiligegraal.com\/en\/why-do-you-use-coping-mechanisms-when-dealing-with-trauma\/\">coping strategies<\/a><\/strong>, who provided you with a sense of safety and who didn\u2019t, what else you\u2019ve been through, and how your personality has developed. For many people going through this, it\u2019s a massive puzzle. And for many therapists, it\u2019s just as much of a challenge.     <\/p>\n\n<p>This puzzle has been a huge source of motivation for me to <a href=\"https:\/\/ontdekjeheiligegraal.com\/product\/ontdek-je-heilige-graal-leesboek\/\"><strong>write Discover Your Holy Grail<\/strong><\/a> , create the podcast, and organize the events.
