My Opinion about being 'Traumatized' [TW]

***This is not directed to anyone, this is just my opinion on the subject. This is not supposed to Harm,Harass, or target. If you have a problem with this, please ignore and move on. I am no expert on this topic so please take it with a grain of salt.*** **Introduction** Trauma has multiple meanings, varying from Physical injuries, Mental Distress, and effects of disturbing situations. However, People have used to term incorrectly which has upset people and caused conflict. In this Forum, I will share my personal take on this. **Research/Information** People, mostly young minors, have used the word in a way that causes discomfort, distress, or disagreement in others. They use the term usually when something disgusts them; such as a song,video,game,ect. Though, the thing has no permanent effect on them, nor results in any ongoing issue. Typically, the person still engages with it, instead of ignoring,blocking, or other things to avoid it. They often end up moving on quickly with no long lasting damage to them physically or mentally. Victims of Trauma feel this is disrespectful, because their experiences have affected them immensely, while some use the word for temporary,avoidable, and non-dangerous things. **Closing** The meaning of Trauma shouldn't be used as a label for discomfort or disgust. Anyone with Trauma should be comforted and helped, not cast out for those who caused the term to feel unimportant. Remember to block,ignore, or avoid anything that upsets you without engaging with it. If someone uses the word incorrectly, try to educate them or explain the meaning of it. Nobody should be harassed,harmed, or targeted for a simple mistake or misunderstanding. **Help** If you need help, please contact emergency services, crisis lifelines, or other forms of assistance. Your safety and overall well-being matters. **Sign-Off** -Jinx
