The Nuances of Trauma in Millennial Women of Color: We're Not All Coping the Same Way

Hey, sis. When most people hear "trauma," they think of big, dramatic events. And while that's part of it, trauma can also be insidious, creeping into your daily life in ways you might not even recognize. But let's be clear: Your trauma is valid, even if it's not always visible to the world—or even to you.

Could This Be You?

• You're the 'strong one' in your circle, but deep down, you're tired and don't feel that strong. Being the rock for everyone else has left you feeling like a pebble.

• You avoid certain places, conversations, or even people because they trigger flashbacks or uncomfortable feelings, making you relive experiences you'd rather forget.

• You're 'fine'—except you're not. You've gotten so good at wearing a mask that even you believe it sometimes.

• You feel like you're on an emotional rollercoaster, experiencing mood swings, irritability, or sudden bouts of sadness that you can't explain.

• You engage in "people-pleasing" behaviors to the point where you've lost sight of who you are and what you enjoy.

• You're mentally and physically exhausted because you're constantly in 'survival mode,' waiting for the next bad thing to happen.
