We have got to quit asking, 'What is wrong with you and start asking, what happened to you?' We have got to do a better job of recognizing trauma and getting people the help they need.
Have you ever wondered how childhood trauma shapes a person’s life? In this episode of the Wellness Action Recovery podcast, Fonda Bryant dives into the deep waters of trauma, revealing its long-lasting effects. Trauma isn't just a momentary event; it's a lingering shadow that can manifest in various forms like bullying, community violence, intimate partner violence, and medical trauma. Fonda passionately explains that instead of asking 'What's wrong with you?', we should be asking 'What happened to you?'.
This simple shift in perspective can open doors to understanding and healing. Through her own experiences and those of others, Fonda sheds light on the emotional toll trauma takes, including fear, anxiety, and panic. She shares poignant stories, such as those of George Floyd and Kellen Winslow Jr., to illustrate how trauma can follow individuals from childhood into adulthood. These real-life examples help listeners grasp the complexities of trauma and its enduring impact on mental health.
Fonda’s heartfelt message is clear: recognizing trauma is the first step towards getting the help needed. She encourages anyone struggling to seek support, reminding us that help is always available and that mental health doesn’t discriminate. This episode is not just an exploration of trauma; it’s a call to action for empathy and understanding. By tuning in, you'll gain valuable insights into the nature of trauma and learn how to better support those who are affected by it.
