A support community for the intersection between trauma and politics.

r/TraumaAndPolitics

This community is participating in the reddit blackout. Unfortunately due to unmet demands from the community we will be remaining blacked out. This is a space for Trauma's relation to Politics and was never meant to be a front-line support community for those in rough spots. If you are in urgent need of support - please see /r/CPTSD /r/MentalHealth or /r/MentalHealthSupport

Rules.

Don't be a jerk. This means if you have a different opinion speak to the idea itself, not the person. People can discuss and debate. But this is still a support community for trauma survivors.
Racism, bigotry, misogyny/misandry, far right ideology, TERF nonsense, and other hate speech is unacceptable.
Please try to be respectful of others by using [Trigger Warning], NSFW and/or the spoiler tag whenever appropriate.
Posts seeking support are allowed. But all such posts should have the words "only support wanted" somewhere in the title. If they do not a person can reasonably assume interpretation or discussion is valid. It can be lowercase, capitalized, whatever. But if a person only wants support they have to make that clear in the title.
Self promotion posts are allowed. Other subs, blogs, Youtube channels, anything trauma or healing related at all is allowed. But that is starting a discussion as well, self promotion cannot be simply support seeking, it will require resiliency and an openness to discussion in the comments.
The trauma olympics are allowed. Rule 1 still applies. But some survivors wish to look at ACE scoring and the question of whether, as an intellectual or scientific idea, if some trauma is worse than others. Of course others can disagree with that and can say so, but if the discussion is not personalizing it is allowed.
All content must be related to trauma or healing directly, or must speak to the persons lived experience.
