Trauma and What We Can Do about It

We have always known that events play a role in the shaping of character. But what gives an event the power to influence us? This question has been asked insistently in recent year. Taking the word from biology where it means injury or wound, he applied It to what he called injuries to the psyche, and so a trauma came to mean an emotional experience or shock with a lasting psychological effect. There can be little doubt that trauma may occur at any age, since we always hold some attitudes hesitantly, renewing then by some of our behavior. The sudden experience of having people depend on us is frequently traumatic. The choice to shirk responsibilities pushes us away from other people and predispose is to make similar choice in the future. Such choices heighten our prejudices and make us feel less deserving of people’s kindness.
