    My paternal grandfather was orphaned in the Spanish Flu epidemic in 1918. He survived as a 3 year old, "raised" by his 12 year old sister. The emotional trauma echoed down to my brother and his children.

    This is an excellent explanation of what happens whenever trauma is experienced by an individual, a family, a culture, etc. My late mother suffered from petulant BPD. I did not discover the real damage done until she had been dead for almost 10 years. I am 67 years old and I'm still dealing with this madness. I never got married or had any children. To add insult to injury, I was raised in a deeply religious family. So, my late mother used God to shame and guilt-trip me. I have deep regrets that I didn't challenge my mother's actions during my developmental years. But, I was afraid of her. She was always interacting with me and the rest of my family of origin through some level of anger. My mental health has been deeply impacted. Thank you for sharing this deeply needed information about generational trauma.

    Tim, most if not all societies have been through collective trauma. I can mention the Highland clearances, Irish famine, Arab slave trade, Ottoman Empire, Soviet persecution and so, so many more. Currently, in many societies we have a problem of victimhood. People who have not experienced those traumas, but have a victim centred psychology, therefore seeing themselves as persecuted. We now live in a society, which rather than accept awful things happened to many groups, we have a desire to rank victimhood and blame people who had nothing to do with past terrible events. Mandela recognised with his truth and reconciliation initiative that you cannot right the wrongs of the past, but simply come to terms with them. If we are to learn from the past it is that all groups are capable of carrying out awful atrocities justified by past trauma. That said these traumas can be dealt with if we move people away from victimhood and to a place of honest acceptance of dysfunctional societies.

      Trauma to me isn't all about what I experienced, but the way it made me feel and the PTSD it left. There is no "worse-than-you" trauma because we all have our own perception of the world. Victimhood is a touchy subject, but I know I can keep healing and there are trauma victims in the world, but at the same time, there are entitled people as well

    • @dapsolita
      @dapsolita 2 місяці тому

      My question to you is this: which group of people are the ones that have not experienced trauma. The ones you say are in victimhood? It seems from his talk and your listing of all of the atrocities combined with generational trauma, very few would be un-victimized.

    This has been my conclusion about my complex childhood/trauma. On a spiritual aspect, it's been a spiritual curse that goes back to WW2 and probably even beyond. I named the curse to my mother's last name. From her I had the watered down version. The psychological abuse, exploitation, manipulation, gaslighting. We literaly got into fights over anything and we hated eachother with passion. Where it started is both not our fault. For me, this has only been the watered down version of an intergenerational trauma.
    My mother had a psychopath as a father. By him, she was being abused, beaten, bullied, grabbed by her hair and thrown off the stairs. She probably got SA'd by her own father. Her mother, my grandmother was being abused by that man as well. I don't know exactly how my grandmother and my biological grandfather came together. It could have been an arranged marriage gone wrong.
    The situation escalated and my mother and grandmother had to flee away from this psychopath. So, they ended up in homeless institutions and mental hospital for a while. There my mother and grandmother got divided. My mother ran away from those institutions. She met my 21 years old father when she was only 14 years old. However I was born when my mother was 23 and my father 30.
    Back to her psychopath father, my biological grandfather. I never met the guy. But my grandmother once told me he was being called "The Jewman" by other locals.
    Wich is a very striking nickname. Maybe my grandfather was born right after WW2. I don't know exactly how old he is, but he could have experienced the war as a child. Or he ended up in the post war era, where nazi supporters, female lovers, but also still the jews were being bullied with things like "they forgot to put you in the gaschamber".
    This could be one of many reasons that clarifies the extreme psychopatic behaviour he had towards my mother. My grandfather was a severely traumatized man by the post war era.
    I don't know exactly what went beyond my grandfather. His parents probably escaped the trains to concentration camps.
    Problem is, I don't know my grandmothers exact story. To get to know this, I'm saving up money to meet her and her new husband (great guy, my real grandfather) later on.
    Because when I get this story straight, my complex trauma childhood was only the watered down version of our intergenerational trauma. It becomes acceptable for what I went through.
    Then I can properly break the curse.

    People who are writing comments like “blame it on others,”
    I get your view, there is such thing as tough love, and some people may see that as harsh to a child, but when you’re being physically, sexually or verbally abused or neglected, that has a huge impact on them when they’re older.
    Don’t look at it as blaming, it’s more like identifying the source of that anguish. I resent my parents for the trauma they caused me, but I’m actively choosing to better myself by learning some of the unhealthy behaviours that I unintentionally gained as a result of my child hood.
    It’s healthy for people to grieve when they have that light bulbs moments and realize where all that pain originated from.
    So rather than sit in front of your key board and judge others, you should try and put yourself In their shoes and try and understand what they are going through. If you still don’t understand, then maybe that’s a sign that you are stuck in your ways and refuse to learn any further.

It's can and will never excuse the answer and how much damage they inflicted upon me since birth. I have been sick most of my life, the lastest being Leukemia. I have done so much work to heal not only mentally but physically. I don't give a single flip about what my mom or grandma went through because that's the same BS they tried to pull on me to excuse their shyte treatment of me. I love your work Tim and you have helped me tremendously. Today I just can't finish this video

      You're allowed to feel angry. It's good that you are acknowledging the feelings that flare up inside you, even if they don't feel good to sit with. It is what it is and it's also understandable (and normal and healthy). I am sure Tim would understand that as well. Better to acknowledge what is there now than to let it bottle up and fester and distort. All the best 💛

    • @charlottetaylor4471
      @charlottetaylor4471 2 місяці тому +11

      I completely agree. I've received a lot of criticism/pushback on my views of this (because there are many abused people in denial or many who are abusers themselves), but I stand by it 100%. I consider it a gaslighting lie that trauma is generational, although technically I understand where they're coming from. There is NO excuse for child abuse. It baffles me, because for every excuse they come up with for child abuse, i genuinely see it the opposite way. For example, people say to me "oh your parents only abused you because they were abused by their parents." Having abusive parents made me hyper-aware of what that does to a child. I had two abusive, narcissistic and disturbed parents (and no support or enlightened witnesses) and I haven't abused any children (nor will I ever abuse or neglect children.) That's the same for many people. Abusing children is a choice they make and I can't believe that so many people (including a lot of these therapists) try to excuse it.

    Wow! This has helped me feel less crazy! I've had ocd and depression since I was old enough to walk. I felt crazy....cause I didn't know why I felt or acted like I do. So much fear and anxiety foe no reason. I found out as an adult that my grandpop grew up in an orphanage and was beaten and sexually abused. My mom( his daughter) and her sisters were sexually abused. Her older sister was sent to an insane asylum when she tried to kill her father. I grew up terrified of men and afraid they would hurt me. I didn't know why I felt.this way......I just felt so much anxiety when men would approach me. I was abused as a teen.I spent years in therapy and left feeling like I would never feel whole. I feared, the shame and lack of trust, dissociation will be with me for life. Hopefully, working through generational issues will help me heal. thank you
