It can have lasting adverse effects that impedes one\u2019s daily functioning, resulting in a deterioration of physical, mental, emotional, social, and spiritual well-being.<\/p>\n<p><strong>BIG &#8220;T&#8221; TRAUMA<\/strong><br \/>\nBig \u201cT\u201d trauma is often associated with life- threatening events such as natural disaster, terrorism or sexual assault. As a result of such encounters, the person might feel a loss of control over the situation, evoking feelings of anxiety and fear.<\/p>\n<p><strong>SMALL &#8220;t&#8221; TRAUMA<\/strong><br \/>\nSmall \u201ct\u201d trauma is the accumulation of less pronounced everyday events. Such traumas are often overlooked as they do not seem overtly life-threatening.<\/p>\n<p>Nonetheless, the accumulative effect of multiple small \u201ct\u201d trauma events can eventually incapacitate one\u2019s emotional functioning. Some examples are divorce, interpersonal conflict, or loss of employment. For children, small \u201ct\u201d trauma events could include cyberbullying, going through a minor medical procedure, and experiencing loss and grief.<\/p>\n<p><strong>TYPES OF TRAUMA<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Acute Trauma is an exposure to an overwhelming single event that lasts for a short period of time. For example, experiencing a car accident or the sudden loss of a loved one.<\/li>\n<li>Chronic Trauma is when one experiences many traumatic events over a prolonged period of time. These can be recurrent traumatic events of the same kind. For example, being physically abused by a parent for many years.<\/li>\n<li>Complex Trauma refers to children who have been repeatedly exposed to chronic abuse and\/or neglect at a young age (below 5 years old) over a prolonged period of time. Complex trauma usually involves multiple recurrences of the same traumatic event, or multiple occurrences of different traumatic events. These events often happen early in life and are usually caused by a caregiver. Hence, this negatively impacts a child\u2019s ability to form a secure attachment, emotional coping mechanism and a healthy sense of self.<\/li>\n<li>Developmental Trauma includes neglect, abandonment, physical, sexual and emotional abuse, and witnessing violence. Every child is dependent on his parents for care. When left unattended, it will affect the child mentally, emotionally, and socially. Such adverse impacts are worsened when his parents are the cause<br \/>\nof his negative feelings.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>TRAUMA RESPONSES<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Young children who experienced traumatic events will have learnt certain traumatic responses as a means for survival. Ordinary situations may be perceived as threats and trigger traumatic responses.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The four Fs of trauma response describe the different ways in which one may react when faced with threatening situations. The goal of these stress responses is to minimise, end or avoid the danger, allowing them to return to a state of calm and control.<\/p>\n<p>When one believes that the threat he is facing can be overpowered, the <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">FIGHT<\/span> response will be engaged. Signs would include clenching of fist and glaring.<\/p>\n<p>When one believes that the danger cannot be overcome, the <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">FLIGHT<\/span> response will be engaged by running away or leaving the situation.<\/p>\n<p>In situations when one believes that neither fighting nor fleeing would alleviate the threat, the <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">FREEZE<\/span> response may be engaged. The signs include numbness in the body, significant changes in heart rate, and withdrawal.<\/p>\n<p>When the above traumatic stress responses are not effective, the <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">FAWN<\/span> response may be engaged. The person learns to comply with and appease the abuser so as to avoid aggravating the situation. True emotions towards the abusive situation and\/or the abuser will be denied and suppressed.<\/p>\n<p>Although not many people may have experienced big \u201cT\u201d trauma in their lives, small \u201ct\u201d trauma may be more common to everyone. Some would be able to recover on their own, while others may require professional help. By seeking help from counsellors and therapists, they can face the trauma events that they experienced, identify appropriate stress responses and learn effective strategies to cope with stressful situations.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row type=&#8221;in_container&#8221; full_screen_row_position=&#8221;middle&#8221; column_margin=&#8221;default&#8221; scene_position=&#8221;center&#8221; text_color=&#8221;dark&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; shape_divider_position=&#8221;bottom&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221;][vc_column column_padding=&#8221;no-extra-padding&#8221; column_padding_position=&#8221;all&#8221; background_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; background_hover_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; column_link_target=&#8221;_self&#8221; column_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; tablet_width_inherit=&#8221;default&#8221; tablet_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; phone_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; column_border_width=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221;][vc_column_text]By Chow Kit Seen, Senior Social&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"footnotes":"","_wp_rev_ctl_limit":""},"categories":[17,19],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1671","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","category-parenting","category-resources"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t<!-- All in One SEO 5.0.0.1 - aioseo.com -->\n\t<meta name=\"description\" content=\"By Chow Kit Seen, Senior Social Worker at Epworth Family Welfare Trauma is an emotional response to painful and distressing situations that overwhelms a person\u2019s usual coping abilities, causing feelings of helplessness and powerlessness.
