What is Trauma?

Definition of Trauma.

 

Trauma is the response to a deeply distressing or disturbing event that overwhelms an individual’s ability to cope, causes feelings of helplessness, diminishes their sense of self and their ability to feel the full range of emotions and experiences.

​

Physical Trauma:An injury (such as a wound) to living tissue caused by an extrinsic agent. 

​

Emotional shock following a stressful event or a physical injury, which may lead to long-term neurosis.
