There are many types of childhood trauma that can range from events like physical abuse, sexual abuse, emotional abuse, physical neglect, emotional neglect, divorce, substance abuse, or a mental illness. Difficulties like trusting others, low self-esteem, fears of being judged, constant nightmares, or self-destructive behaviours can be hidden signs that someone may have experienced trauma of some sort.
