Because if you hide and avoid your issues they just fester under the surface and become harder to resolve until you finally break. It causes more harm than good.

And that is the most armchair psychologist way of looking at trauma. Everyone is going to react differently and also require a different treatment plan in order to best heal. Simply saying suck it up is so mind-numbingly lunkheaded it's literally thinking from a different century. How about we let the therapists and clients figure out how to best treat trauma and if that means adhering to trigger warnings for a time then what's the harm to anyone else.

I never said to simply suck it up, but go ahead and put words in my mouth. Smh
