There are people who, when they take a step back and observe their life, they may see that it has been one big struggle. This is not to say that they have never had good experiences or that they don’t have nice things in their life. There is the chance that they have most of the trappings that are associated with success, such as a nice car, a big house. and a load of money in the bank, for instance. But, even if they do have these things, it probably didn’t come easily if childhood trauma was involved.
A Battle
From the moment an individual with childhood trauma wakes up to the moment they go to sleep, they may push themselves to the limit. Living in this way will take a lot out of them, and most of the material objects they have may not do much for them overall.
If they were to describe what their life is like, they may say that it is like being on a treadmill that never stops, instead of reminding themselves of how hard they have worked to earn what they have.
