You Need to Watch This
Trauma. Crisis. Emergency. Loss. Grief. Pain. Numb.
Maybe you have experienced a traumatic event in your life. Maybe you know someone else who has. Chances are that it is one of the two, or both. Trauma can create point in our lives that we think of as the "before" and "after." "Before" the trauma happened, you were (fill in the blank). "After" the trauma, you were (fill in the blank). It affects the victim. It affects the people in the victim's life. Teachers see it in the classroom and are learning about "trauma informed classrooms." Employers are learning more about the need to support their staff through EAP options. We need to learn about trauma and its effects so we can be better friends, partners, teachers, co workers, parents, and responsible citizens.
This video is 18 minutes long. Don't let that stop you from watching it. There is some great information in this video that you might find helpful for yourself or someone else. After you watch it, I would love to hear your thoughts.
