Definitely! We are all different. I may handle falling off my bike in a completely different way another would handle it. I may swear off bikes for good, thinking I am not coordinated. Fear has set in. So, I could see that if a person's CNS is very sensitive it could be much less resilient to what appears to be a minor incident.
for sure.. but i'm also saying that this process of healing (at some point and perhaps not immediately) chemically injects your brain & body with this cocktail of hormones that almost doesnt let you feel trauma.
That is what it feels like to me. My body chemically doesnt allow me to reflect on trauma.
Rather it focuses me on pushing forward and brushing the trauma aside.
Is trauma part of this equation? Alcoholics and drug addicts have, almost without fali, a disrupted connection to others and previous trauma that has not been resolved.
I agree trauma plays a massive role in drug usage.
My issue with trauma is... is the problem the trauma itself or how a person deals with that trauma?
I can take myself as an example... i should probably feel massive amounts of trauma from some of the things i've gone thru the past decade.
For example there was a point in Fall of 2014 where I thought about taking my life almost daily. Because I thought my wife and newborn son might be better off with a different father than the damaged one i was at the time (I couldnt retain any information and didn't think id be able to hold a job at anything above McDonald's).
But do i feel any of this trauma today? Pretty much none.
Rather i feel an incessant drive to get even with everyone that wrote me off and kick some major ass.
Why and how do i feel this way? 99% biomechanics and perhaps 1% my personality.
trauma is an intrinsic part of the equation. basically, trauma = tension in the body = biomechanical imbalance. when you fix one part of the equation, the rest follows. notice that trauma/ tension always has a contractive, constrictive quality to it, in a similar way to biomechanical degradation/collapse.
so to a person with good biomechanics...what is normally traumatic to a normal person may be nothing to him (like how lebron james seems to miraculously walk off ankle sprains no matter how badly they look). and to a severely traumatised person, the whole world is constantly threatening and hostile. if you can effectively heal a person's trauma (you'll have to look hard for an effective solution because mainstream conventional ones range from mildly helpful to counterproductive), there will usually be an improvement in their biomechanics and vice versa (eg when a person leaves a stressful situation, they usually look much better)

yes very well put! i agree.
I also think when healing quickly (your biomechanics)... you are almost immune to trauma to an unnatural extent.
As in i feel like if i were just normal i would worry about a lot more things.
But because of what this process does to my body.. i prob worry a lot less than i should lol
