This is helpful. I had a childhood that was both traumatic and very privileged at the same time, and sometimes it’s really hard to hold both things as true at once

It’s actually not even at all about how big your window of tolerance says it’s about how much support you have to recover from it. You can have big tea trauma all goddamn day that you are just fine

yes! the body doesn't have the same metrics as our logical mind. its metric is did it overwhelm the system yes or no

Thank you! As someone with most little t traumas this is very validating. Perhaps someone else would have been traumatized by the things I've lived but I am and that is real and okay to admit

Most of my trauma if not all is small t, and people do not understand at all. ❤️

Do you think you would still be a system if you only had little t traumas?

Trauma isn't a game and doesn't know standards. EVERYONE has it, it's ALWAYS very real to those experiencing it🥺🫂

I feel like living itself is inherently traumatic and that is so valid, your body responds the same whether its a little or big T ❤️

It’s not okay to invalidate someone’s traumatic response and feelings because of it just because YOU have experienced trauma too. It’s not a competition of who had it worst. It’s all valid!
