Exploring the embodied experience of childhood traumaand its role in survivors' relationships with themselves andothers: a survivor-led qualitative st

在英国，三分之一的儿童和年轻人经历过创伤，全球有二分之一的儿童和年轻人经历过创伤。童年创伤是一个重要的问题：它不仅非常常见，而且对幸存者的心理和身体健康的影响是复杂和严重的。童年创伤会改变人的思想、大脑和身体。创伤记忆以未经处理的情绪和感觉的形式体现出来，影响幸存者与自己和他人的关系，并使生活变得非常困难。主流疗法不能很好地适应童年创伤，它们也没有给幸存者提供应有的帮助。具体地说，当涉及到创伤的具体方面时，它们是有限的。因此，幸存者呼吁了解创伤情况的护理和不同的治疗方法。现在开始出现以创伤的具体体验为重点的新干预措施。显然，这些需要进一步发展，因为它们有可能造福于大量的人。要做到这一点，重要的是我们要了解幸存者是如何经历身体创伤的，这如何影响他们与自己和他人的关系，以及什么支持治愈。这就是这个幸存者领导的研究项目的目标。首先，它将回顾关于创伤的具体经历及其对幸存者的影响的已知情况。然后，它将从参加以创伤为重点的运动为基础的团体干预的童年创伤成年幸存者那里收集新的见解。

1 in 3 children and young people in the UK experience trauma and 1 in 2 globally. Childhood trauma is an important issue: not only is it very common but its impact on survivors' mental and physical health is complex and severe. Childhood trauma changes the mind, the brain, and the body. Traumatic memories are embodied, held in the form of unprocessed emotions and sensations that impact survivors' relationships with themselves and others, and make it very difficult to live life. Mainstream therapies are not well adapted to childhood trauma and they are not helping survivors as much as they should. Specifically, they are limited when it comes to the embodied aspects of trauma. Therefore, survivors are calling for trauma-informed care and different approaches to healing. New interventions focused on the embodied experience of trauma are now beginning to appear. It is clear that these need to be developed further as they have the potential to benefit a large number of people. To do this, it is important that we understand how survivors experience trauma in the body, how this affects their relationships with themselves and others, and what supports healing. This is what this survivor-led research project aims to do. First, it will review what is already known about the embodied experience of trauma and its impact on survivors. Then, it will collect new insights from adult survivors of childhood trauma taking part in a trauma-focused movement-based group intervention.
