Stories of Trauma

Stories of trauma refer to personal accounts of experiencing or witnessing events that cause intense emotional distress, such as accidents, violence, or abuse. These stories often highlight feelings of fear, helplessness, or grief, and can have lasting effects on mental health. Sharing trauma stories can help individuals process their experiences, foster understanding, and promote healing. Recognizing these stories is important in providing support and empathy, as trauma impacts not only the events themselves but also how people think, feel, and relate to others afterward.
