Is talking about trauma helpful?
Trauma Support / by quietlistener2023

...See more I have heard that simd therapists do not ask their clients about their trauma specifically because they think it is unethical to make someone remember and go through the experience again.  Rather they deal with the aftermaths of the trauma or with physical activity and so forth as it is said that trauma gets stuck in the body.  Trigger warning: effects of war Near where I am after the war ended in Damascus (about half an hour or an hour from where I am) there is an area that was badly hit in the country of Damascus.  They where closed in and many houses were destroyed....I know what happened to them and I have often been concerned about how they have dealt with this.  When I tried to ask a girl there about herself she immediately shut down and said " I do not want to talk about it".  I know from my own experiences that it is overwhelming to talk about such experiences.  I also know some of the things that happened there.  When a girl told me (she was calm and cutting vegetables at the time) about a house collapsing in flames and the daughter and her children of a woman who I met were gone (I myself find it hard to say), it made me feel like I was going to have my own heart attack without actually experiencing it.  I often remember that and feel deeply affected. I therefore have thought it might be better both for those listening/counselling or those needing support that we don't have to talk or listen to details of trauma but deal with the aftermaths... I am talking in general and especially to these issues related to war .. So my question here is have you been through a war...so you find it helpful to talk about it or better to not talk about it and do you find something else helpful? Those who have other types of trauma does it help to talk about it or does it make you feel worse or better? If not what are the things that you find helpful when dealing with trauma? Would you prefer to talk about it in detail or just deal with the after affects of the trauma? I know there are different types, so perhaps some times might be better to talk about and some not ..I was wondering what other people think about all this.
