Complex Trauma

Individual trauma results from an event, series of events, or set of circumstances that is experienced by an individual as physically or emotionally harmful or threatening and that can have lasting adverse effects on the individual’s functioning and physical, social, emotional well-being. 

There are three main types of trauma: acute, chronic, or complex.
  • Acute trauma- results from a single incident.
  • Chronic trauma- is repeated and prolonged such as domestic violence or abuse.
  • Complex trauma- describes both children’s exposure to multiple traumatic events, often of invasive, interpersonal nature, and the wide-ranging, long-term impact of this exposure.

Do you find it difficult regulating impulses such as anger and self-destructiveness, do you mentally check out of your environment, do you have a chronic sense of guilt or responsibility, difficulty trusting people or feeling intimate, hopelessness or despair, and other somatic or medical problems.

Do You Know Your Ace Score

There are 10 types of childhood trauma measured in the ACE Study. Five are personal — physical abuse, verbal abuse, sexual abuse, physical neglect, and emotional neglect. Five are related to other family members: a parent who’s an alcoholic, a mother who’s a victim of domestic violence, a family member in jail, a family member diagnosed with a mental illness, and the disappearance of a parent through divorce, death or abandonment. Each type of trauma counts as one. So a person who’s been physically abused, with one alcoholic parent, and a mother who was beaten up has an ACE score of three.

​The most important thing to remember is that the ACE score is meant as a guideline: If you experienced other types of toxic stress over months or years, then those would likely increase your risk of health consequences.
