All trauma is valid, I want to start by saying that.
But, the kind of resources/support we need to work through our trauma is different. I have learned recently about little T and big T trauma, and how knowing (when working through a specific event/experience) which type of trauma you're working through can not only help you understand better what kind of help you may need/most benefit from, but also take steps to get the right support.
As someone who is pretty strong on the "all trauma is valid" outlook, I have never really stopped to think about it this way. However, I will say learning about this has quickly put a lot right into perspective for me!
