"What's Going On In My Brain In Trauma?" Defining Your Symptoms | Psychotherapy Crash Course
0#Trauma #traumaticbrain #traumaticbonding
On Wednesday I discussed the brain regions that are responsible for the defensive behaviors of our fight or flight response after having experienced something traumatic. Trauma can negatively impact not only the brain but also behaviors in everyday life.
There are a series of predictable behaviors that individuals struggling with the aftereffects of trauma may display. Some of these behaviors are defense mechanisms, while other behaviors are the brains processing of your environment and trying to make sense out of whether you are in danger.
In this video, I discuss some of the behaviors you may be showing if you are struggling with the aftereffects of trauma.
