The Trauma You Inherited Before You Were Born | Dr. Mariel Buqué

A lot of people are afraid to to go back into the stories of their past. They're afraid to face the pain, the traumas that they're aware of, and also to face the things they're unaware of, the generational traumas. Why is it so hard for us to face these past traumas and pains? Uh it's it's hard for a number of reasons. I mean, I think that a lot of what makes it hard is that people start feeling really unsafe in their own bodies whenever they're talking about trauma.

Trauma is like that that area of mental health that we're still a little bit tentative about touching in conversation. And and so it makes it so that people, you know, don't don't necessarily want to get into the nitty-gritty of not only trauma and understanding what trauma is, but also like how trauma impacts their own lives. how trauma transcends down their lineage, how trauma has been a part of their lives, because people will exist in trauma, but then have a tough time even acknowledging that it even is a thing. So what would you say is the percentage of people that exist in trauma in US? Oh goodness.

Well, I mean I I I saw not too long ago like this uh Statistic, I think it can be variable because we're we gotta acknowledge the fact that some people won't actually acknowledge that they're in trauma or know that they're in trauma, right? So, but the statistics said some somewhere around like 65 or so percent in a lifetime. So we like someone will ex it 65% of the population in the US will experience trauma in their lifetime. some element of trauma.
