The Impact of Childhood Trauma | How Early Experiences Affect Your Life

Published: Sept. 3, 2020, 10 a.m.

b'Today we talk about childhood trauma and the impact it has on children. Adam tells about an experience he had in high school, getting made fun of because of his weight and sort of nerdiness, and then the impact it had on his thinking. We talk about how much pain he went through and how this affected his desire to go to school. Eventually Adam felt he became the bully, or the very thing he loathed. We talk about the divorce of Adam\\u2019s parents and how much that impacted his ability to even have conversations. Rosie tells about how Adam\\u2019s desire to cook rather than have her cook stems from Adam\\u2019s past and not because he thinks Rosie is bad at cooking.

\\u201cSo often we don\\u2019t realize that adults are carrying childhood trauma into the now, and there might be nearly bipolar experiences happening. What one person is experiencing with someone could be completely different for someone else. And it could just be that they\\u2019re triggering the old trauma.\\u201d 11:14
