Trauma
Q: What is Trauma?
A: Trauma is stress “plus tax”. Interestingly, it is not the event that determines whether or not it will be a traumatic experience, but the person experiences and perceives the event that determines how traumatic the event will be. Traumatizing events (car accident, witnessing a horrific event, natural disaster, bad break-up of a relationship etc...) can be traumatic even when there is no physical harm or damage.
