IS YOUR VIOLENCE ROOTED IN CHILDHOOD WOUNDS?
Could anger, violence, or destructive behavior in adulthood stem from childhood wounds?
This Wisdom Wednesday, CLR recognizes Domestic Violence Awareness Month. Dr. Diane Kern explains that witnessing violence in childhood can leave emotional wounds that show up in adulthood. Because children often cannot stop the violence around them, they may internalize fear, anger, and helplessness.
To cope, children may suppress, avoid, or deny the experience, or develop other survival strategies. Yet unresolved trauma can persist, later surfacing as anger, aggression, depression, substance abuse, or unhealthy relationships. Counseling can help to break this cycle.
Recognize the trauma. Address the pain. Break the cycle. Begin the healing.
Learn how to break generational family patterns.
