Reply to comment by Choice-Cost in Childhood traumas strongly impact both mental and physical health, new study shows. For every reported type of abuse experienced in childhood, a participant's risk for PTSD increased 47%. Each cumulative trauma also increased one's risk for making a suicide attempt by 33%. by Wagamaga

It is still unhealthy. We should not throw up our hands and give up on reducing trauma - especially in children.

Oh absolutely I’m not saying we just accept that trauma is normal that’s the point. For too long we’ve accepted a lot of not normal things to be normal. That’s why the book by Gabor mate is called “the myth of normal”. I just started reading it and I can’t put it down.
