Is it normal to downplay my trauma when in a conversation about trauma
I was reminiscing about a few things and I remembered a discussion about our traumatic experiences as kids with my ex girlfriend. I won’t put her business out but it had a lot of SA and SH even til that point in time. After hearing that I didn’t even wanna talk about my trauma because saying that it’s equal is just wrong I felt like I’d be whining to her about how I had a physically and emotionally abusive mother and how my father was neglectful like if I was in her position and I heard my side I’d probably be offended like how is that bad. I don’t know if it’s a problem or I’m jst an asshole but is it normal for me to do this?
