Stop Glamourizing Trauma

If someone has been shown a video of of locked door.

there would be two types of person who would feel completely different after watching it.

One would get a sudden chills, hard to breathe, afraid , anxious and confused.

another would feel a sudden relief because they felt that they're somehow safe.

The person who feels chills, difficulty breathing, fear, and confusion might be reacting to the video in a way that triggers anxiety or a sense of danger. Perhaps they associate the act of locking a door with a threatening situation, a memory or the context of the video evokes unsettling emotions for them.

On the other hand, the person who experiences relief may have a different set of associations or interpretations. They might view the act of locking the door as a protective measure, providing them with a sense of security and safety. Their reaction could be influenced by previous positive experiences related to locked doors or a general feeling of comfort and control.

I get it. That sometimes We glamourize pain and hardships because this is where we get our strength, We encourage people to believe that pain is worth it but trauma is a lot more different.

IT HAS ALL THE CAPACITY TO RUIN BEAUTIFUL SOULS. Trauma is not just a pain that would go away over time. Trauma dives deeper it cuts people. It brings even more hatred, fear, panic, stress, anxiety, depression.

Trauma changes people.

Over the years, some people have been been believing that they're on the process of moving on and self-healing, self-love when in fact they're not healing entirely, that's because they are denial. and that's fine. This is their start. it's their defense mechanism or maybe a coping mechanism.

Trauma is a Nightmare even when you're awake. In fact it makes you stay up all night. It haunts you everywhere you go. It made you too fragile that you kept your walls high enough to protect yourself. It's fine. you're feeling is valid. but Trauma response is often mistook as self-healing process . It could be confusing at times. It could be a double-edged sword. What may appear as healing could be at times be a survival mechanism in disguise.

Glamourizing trauma isn't the best way to cope over it. But one way is often involve seeking professional help when needed, forgiving yourself, acknowledgement, become braver and engaging in activities that would completely foster genuine well being. Healing is not a linear process and it often involves confronting what pains you us the most. Don't just wait for a time to heal it, Do something. It may seem to harsh because sometimes people just wanted to forget and move on and ignore it. However the more we ignore it, the more we get totally aware that we need to forget it and that could even lead us to thinking where it all started. This does not mean dwelling on the past, but rather it involves conscious effort to work through the pain in order to reclaim what yours and what you deserve.
