Trauma manifests in various forms and can result from a wide range of experiences, including physical or emotional abuse, accidents, natural disasters, or witnessing violence. It triggers a cascade of emotional responses that can lead to long-term psychological effects such as anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The impact of trauma is often profound, affecting not only mental health but also physical well-being, relationships, and overall quality of life.
