To give a general definition for psychological traumas, "a state of discomfort and anxiety arising from memories of an extraordinary, catastrophic experience that left a permanent effect on the personality and spiritual structure of the individual to one degree or another" is one of the inclusive definitions.
Traumas can be caused by natural events (earthquake, fire, flood, etc.) or by human hands (war, death, divorce, abuse, etc.) and the rate at which people are affected is the same. may change
. The rapidly advancing urbanization process is making the line between natural and human-induced trauma increasingly blurred. At the same time, what the two clusters I mentioned have in common is their uncontrolled and sudden
development.
We can say that the most general effects of trauma are that it affects adaptation mechanisms and functionality (the normal process in daily life).
This effect; It may occur in the form of an overwhelming revival or triggering of memories, or it may also be seen as a nightmare during sleep processes.
The important thing at the point of impact is not trying to find the answer to the question "why did it affect me but not x person?" Because it includes influence, past history, physiological, psychological structure and many dynamics depending on these factors. For the same reason, trauma that is very hurtful for one person may be considered much more normal for another person
. In addition, the concept of locus of control and self-perception
elements are effective in this process.
Trauma and situations arising from trauma not only put the person in a vicious circle, but also prevent him/her from functions in daily
life. This is a system that feeds itself. It is necessary to know that
personalities and structures are unique and relative. The effectiveness of professional mental health services (psychologist, psychological counselor, psychiatrist, including psychotherapy practices) to be carried out within a healthy framework and cooperation in order to bring the person and his/her functions out of the shadow of traumatic effects
is successful. These studies are aimed at correcting incorrect coding based on experiences.
