5 Signs You Had A Traumatic Childhood (And Don't Realize It)
Jump to Connections
874,503 Views • May 28, 2022 • Click to toggle off description
There are many types of childhood trauma that can range from events like physical abuse, sexual abuse, emotional abuse, physical neglect, emotional neglect, divorce, substance abuse, or a mental illness. Difficulties like trusting others, low self-esteem, fears of being judged, constant nightmares, or self-destructive behaviours can be hidden signs that someone may have experienced trauma of some sort. Adults can develop symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder even if they have no explicit memory of an early childhood trauma, according to research by UCLA psychologists.

Although you may recognize some of these signs in yourself or someone you know, it is BEST not to diagnose yourself. Please reach out to a professional if you want to get treatment of some sort.

Most parents don't think about their kids emotions. Feeds and clothe that's all they think kids need.

I was shocked to see how comfortable my friends are with their parents until I realized mine were just too toxic to make me feel comfortable

My emotions got shut down with “I’ll give you something to cry about!” and “stop it, you’re gonna make yourself sick!” Mom was a closet alcoholic and covert narc. Dad was stern, scary, short fused and probably on the spectrum and had no idea what to do with emotional issues. Thanks for the validation and comfort that I get from your vids. You are doing important and life changing work.

My childhood was horrific and has left me damaged. Trusting people is very difficult.

Just a heads-up for others: Parents aren't always the cause. For me, it was my school environment that caused my trauma. My family was actually very supportive! But trauma is trauma; the cause may be different but we're just as valid!

It makes me so sad that my parents brush off the illness of PTSD. I have been diagnosed with PTSD recently and I always feel heartbroken knowing that the experiences I had growing up weren't normal. I am still living with my parents (I'm in high school) and I always try to avoid conflict as much as possible for my little sister, as I can tell she is obviously experiencing the traumatic aftereffects of her childhood that are still ongoing. I always tear up when I see her flinch every time my Dad just walks past or near her.

wow, hearing age regression being addressed so casually an directly is so nice. age regression is not in any way related to nsfw things (contrary to popular assumption), it's a trauma response and coping mechanism and is often involuntary. and indeed, sometimes it is NOT fun. thank you for mentioning it

Number 2, 3 and 4 are literally me. My mom constantly criticized me, berated me and talked down to me if I voiced my opinion that wasn't in line with her. My mom discreted my feelings as overreacting and childish. I understand she was a single mom who was going through a difficult time herself. But under no circumstances you take that anger out on anyone. Especially not a child.

My childhood was horrible. I was sexually assaulted by my 16 year old neighbor when I was 6. I watched my dad beat my mom all the time. I also have anxiety, depression and borderline personality disorder. I have an 8 year old son that I have to be careful around because anger is a huge side effect but he has a great life, he’s very comfortable and tells me things he won’t tell anyone else. He’s very loved and I’m happy he’s here. I need to not let my mental illnesses affect him

From 0 to 9 I grew up in a wonderful, loving environment. Just as I turned nine, my mom died in a stupid automobile accident, caused by a bus driver that went through a red light. Suddenly, my life flipped around in absolute terms; my farther went bezerk, married a woman that was the exact opposite of my mom, and my life became a nightmare. What kept me from falling appart was the massive amount of love I received from my mother, a love that helped me survive this nightmare, and a sense I had, which I don't know where it came from, that I should live my life to make her proud of her only child, and this, miraculously, gave me strength to go on, and to survive. Now, looking back, I believe she would be very proud of her kid, but at the same time, I realize what a horrible experience I went through. This, by the way, took place 50 years ago.

I've been going to therapy for about 7 months now and have been diagnosed with compounded complex trauma. It's incredible to me how much of my childhood i thought was normal until I got older and noticed my friends weren't scared of their parents. They didn't get screamed at or hit anytime they challenged, questioned anything, or voiced their own thoughts on something. Going to a friend's house where they have a safe environment is a real eye opener.

I am very old now, 75. After being a very busy adult, working and raising children, I had time to think about my childhood and its possible effects on me, because I still have numerous behaviors as listed in this video. I was the youngest child;I was like a ghost child. Fed and clothed, never complimented, never told I was loved. My siblings all had something special they offered my parents. My sister became a nun, and my brothers simply had to be males. I was very attached to my parents, but I realize the touching and affection was from me to them, not the other way around. Very difficult to stand up for myself, and always afraid I am going to make someone mad at me. I believe this all has led me to over eat. It's my way of doing something nice for myself, as horrible as it seems to say that. That is my risky behavior, which I am having a hard time stopping.

My siblings and I joke about our "spicy memories" all the time, but we all know that we're messed up in one way or another even if we had an okay childhood. We (my young adult siblings, myself and our mom) have been away from a volitile situation for close to three years now, and even now in my 30s I'm still struggling with managing how I react to things emotionally. Being the eldest child meant I was much more exposed to that for a longer period, and it's difficult to even find joy on some days.

Whenever I would get upset about anything, I was told that I was too sensitive. I learned to clam up and not say anything. Repressing your emotions will hurt you for your entire life. I know. I’ve done it for most of mine. I’m typically a people pleaser though. I just want to be needed and loved. It stinks because occasionally I blow like a volcano.

I met my childhood friend a few months ago, I went over and stayed there for a while too. Eventually, I kept seeing how respectful and happy they were with their parents even though they were already a teen. The more time i spent with them, the more i got jealous of their relationship with their parents. I didn't want to cause any issues, so i would eventually just leave. I've always wondered what it would feel like to not go though continuous trauma your entire childhood since then. I'm still jealous -.-

I grew up in the era of “children should be seen but not heard” when I look back I realise that was wrong & did not do this with my children, they have grown up with a healthy self esteem & im so proud of them. It still hurts sometimes what I experienced, but I understand & have come to terms with it, my parents took me to a child psychiatrist when I was 6 because I was so anxious, but it was just brushed off really. I still wonder why sometimes but I’ve just pushed past it as I’m in my 50s now, I can’t let that define my life

I didn't realize how neglectful and abusive my parents were until I managed to make friends and met their, more healthy parents. My mother used to refer to me as "her RRSP". I certainly experienced a lot of these growing up, and still do. Fortunately I've traded abusing pain medication in for frequent weed use - and in that, it's been a very conscious journey as well finding strains and effects that work best for handling my specific symptoms. Going low contact with my parents and keeping my life secret from them except for small tidbits I explicitly choose to share has kept me feeling safe and actually able to make my own decisions. I didn't realize just how much I would fall back into my absued shell when I kept even moderate contact with my parents. They had to fully show me they didn't respect me and I had to accept and grieve that loss of this "parents I wish I had" image to finally be able to start really healing and becoming genuinely me. If you're ever wondering, no. You don't owe your parents anything. Go be your own person. That's why you're here.
