Adulthood and Childhood Trauma

This study worked on mitigating the effects of childhood trauma and enhances the physical and mental health of adults, as a child will have negative effects as an adult; yet, some people may develop resilience and discover coping mechanisms that help them overcome the challenges they faced. The phrase “childhood trauma” refers to emotionally and/or mentally distressing or disturbing events that occur throughout childhood and may have a long-term effect on a person’s physical and mental health. Adults who suffered trauma as children may struggle to build and sustain healthy connections with others. The aim of the study was to study the impact of childhood trauma on adulthood. For this purpose, a sample of 100 people aged between 18-50 were taken. Standardised tests for childhood trauma and post trauma effects were used for the participants. Results showed that childhood trauma may have long-term impacts on people even as adults. Implications said additional research and analysis may be necessary to provide a more complete understanding of the relationship between childhood trauma and adult results.
