Childhood Trauma

Trauma!

Isn't it a concept that we are very afraid to hear, to live, to be kept alive?

Especially for a child, our mind does not match the concept of trauma. I don't think it should be matched either.. But unfortunately, traumatic events can happen to young children in the world we live in.

There are children who experience trauma, unfortunately.

How sad, isn't it?

It is frightening to think of the concept of trauma for your own child, it is unexplainable for our child to experience trauma. Moreover, it is frightening to even imagine a sexual trauma.

Is it true? Yes, it's true.. difficult, very difficult.. especially for a child who has experienced this..

Unfortunately, there can be sexual traumas as well as physical as well as emotional abuses, traumatic experiences..

Children can often see physical and emotional traumas from their closest relatives. Also from others..

Unfortunately, they can see sexual traumas from their closest relatives.

It is not correct to put all traumas in the same category. I think everyone agrees on this. You can imagine that a child who has been exposed to sexual trauma may be affected more than physical trauma. Well then..

Forensic processes happen in most of them. Sometimes it remains confidential and the judicial process does not begin. Sadly, exposure to trauma continues. Chronic or secondary type trauma develops.

I would like to dwell on the subject of sexual trauma (sexual abuse) in this article.

Don't always think of sexual behaviors involving the most advanced level of contact. This can have many stages. Sensual touching to private areas, over clothing, over the skin, outside the private area, touching private areas with private areas, contacting a sexual organ from private areas to the vagina and/or anal area, or also ejaculation, etc. It includes things like... p>

These stages have spiritual as well as legal significance.

Further stages, more If it is accompanied by things such as being done by a young child, by an older person, by threats and bullying, it means we are heading towards a much more hopeless situation. It means putting them in very difficult situations.

Think about it, we professionally talk about these issues with these cases. Oftentimes, clients or families who are reluctant to open up encourage them to talk about it.

We voluntarily adapt them to work with these situations where the client is constantly avoiding thinking.

This is a phase..

Afterwards, it may be necessary to study the trauma and additional diagnoses such as depression, anxiety disorder, and dissociative disorder.

The process goes on and on. However, we introduce the concept of “overcoming trauma” to the client, even though it takes a long time rather than living under the great and devastating effect of trauma for a lifetime. Hopelessness turns into hope, anxieties turn into calmness, avoidances turn into coping, and reluctances turn into voluntariness.

It's called post-traumatic stress disorder.

It is difficult, even if it is our job.. even if it is a guess for the client. You can't.. that's how hard it is..

Most parents don't actually know whether their child has been exposed to such a thing.. I say this from our interviews. Even we find things difficult sometimes. Sometimes it is interesting that the client himself is so distant from the subject that even he himself can hardly remember what he has been through.. His mind has suppressed the trauma so strongly that he seems to have disconnected from reality at a dissociative level..

Well, let's say this. Everyone writes and draws something on a subject.. However, what we have written has been experienced.. and many times.. There have been so many moments that we have faced each other.

My advice to families is this: First of all, I am not saying that your child should not be exposed to a trauma.. Because sometimes it's out of your hands. If your child has some behavioral changes; If he is depressed, anxious, introverted and reluctant, inhibited (dullness that develops by moving away from vital natural reactions), if there is a difference.. consult a child and adolescent psychiatrist. so that.. years do not pass.. Let your child return to his healthy life earlier..

Possibilities; suicidal behavior, self-mutilation, social withdrawal and loss of age-appropriate social skills, academic regression, distrust of all people, etc. Aside from the confusion about who is to blame, who is not, is it my fault, your focus should be on getting support.

Because she doesn't deserve it..
