Traumisia
Traumisia: The oppression and stigmatization of people with psychological trauma.
Examples:
-Gatekeeping trauma that doesn't seem "severe" enough (ie; emotional abuse, touch starvation, peer abuse, friendship breakups, etc.) -Blaming trauma survivors for their experiences, or deciding it was "deserved" based on negative actions. (Ie; "That serial killer deserved to be beaten as a child, I am glad they suffered through that.") [Disclaimer: Trauma doesn't excuse shitty actions, but praising a person's trauma just shows other trauma survivors who went through the same thing that you only care if they are "moral enough" for you.] -Fakeclaiming or policing trauma survivors due to having "unpalatable" or "unrealistic" trauma responses. -Treating trauma survivors as weak/pathetic. -Undermining trauma survivors agency and autonomy. -Infantilizing trauma survivors. -Adultifying minor trauma survivors, or treating trauma survivors [of any age] as "beyond their years." -Expecting trauma survivors to undergo painful recovery processes before they are ready and/or against their will. -Telling trauma survivors that what they experienced made them "stronger" or had a "purpose." -Expecting trauma survivors to be leaders or lonewolves (nothing wrong if thats what the survivor prefers, but it's the romanticization of other people that is the bad part, the expectation that they won't lean on anyone or that they'll be more responsible.)
