Informative Links about Trauma

Understanding what trauma is can help increase self-understanding and self-compassion for our own experiences of both enduring huge life hardships and trying to deal with the negative impact of those hardships.

*Note: Since the original ACE study (1995-97) included a limited list of adverse experiences/events, there are likely many other traumatic experiences that could negatively impact health and well-being. This includes experiencing unstable housing, bullying, or discrimination, and even perceiving that one didn't have an adult to receive adequate support from when subjectively feeling it was needed.
