Trauma is something that can take years to heal from some don't ever fully heal. It is also something that can go on for generations. Generational trauma is when a trauma that extends from one generation to the next. It can affect the way people think, feel and behave. War can cause generational trauma along with slavery, Genocide, natural disaster etc. The Stock Market Crash and the Palmer Raids were two events in the 1920s that can be classified as generational trauma. My experience with a traumatic event wasn't as big as some but the way I was able to heal was by going to therapy. Though therapy may have helped me it may not help everyone. Each person is different in their way of healing some do art or music or some may spend time with family. The thing is that everyone heals at their own pace and in different ways there is not a right or wrong way to heal it's different for each individual.
