I have been through all the experiences you mentioned in this video during my childhood. I was never allowed to believe that they were incidents that needed a second thought. Instead I was taught that I should have guarded myself better or perhaps dressed more plain or invisible so that I could have avoided these instances. Infact, today, years from these experiences, my family don't even remember or acknowledge they happened. I don't speak to them anymore but that was a tough call to make. I think childhood trauma can be initiated by lack of care or concern for the child from the caregiver. Sometimes people should just not have kids if they are not going to look after them. Unlike a pet, you can't give a child away. The parent has unresolved issues themselves which they are trying to pass on to their child.
I know from experience that childhood trauma and abuse can make it difficult for me to believe it's ok to stand up for myself, even in non-abusive situations. I recently had a dentist appt and had a tooth filled. The novacaine wasn't applied in the best way and my tooth didn't fully anesthetize. I felt too scared to speak up at the moment and it took me 2 weeks to "unfreeze" so I could process the event and call the office and talk about it. I realized that even as an adult, I sometimes don't believe I have a right to my own body and choices around that. It is very tough, but getting better. In the call, I did tell the office that I am a survivor of childhood trauma and abuse. They were very helpful and appreciated my call.

Flashbacks, fears caused by association, sudden memories 😖
