Cover Intergenerational Trauma: the Ghosts of Times Past
It is not surprising that many people do not fully understand it, and many people tend to deny that it even exists. Society has had several different types of trauma brought to its attention over the last century that it was unaware of and did not believe previously existed. It is important to understand trauma and trauma-related disorders in order to fully grasp how intergenerational trauma affects individuals.

In the 1980s and 1990s, the effects of combat-related PTSD were shown on television and in mainstream media as a result of the large numbers of Vietnam Veterans that were being affected by the disorder. Since then, research has also shed light on non-combat related PTSD such as domestic violence, refugees, sexual crimes, discrimination, and childhood trauma related types of PTSD.MoreLess
