Myths and Facts about Trauma: Yelling.

Myth: Nobody touched me. It wasn’t trauma. Fact: trauma is recorded in the nervous system, and many forms of trauma do not involve physical contact.
Myth: I wasn’t hurt, it was only yelling. Fact: trauma occurs when a person feels their life is in danger. Yelling can trigger this reaction.
Myth: I shouldn’t be scared, they weren’t even yelling at me. Fact: a person who has unresolved trauma in their system could be triggered by hearing someone yell, even if the yelling is directed at someone else.
Myth: Yelling is not physical, so it can’t be violent. Fact: yelling is an intentional, aggressive form of intimidation. Those are the primary elements of violence. This is not to be confused with the loud voice of a person who is feeling attacked, this is a defensive action.
Myth: It’s not yelling if it’s not loud. Fact: there is a form of yelling referred to as “quiet yelling,” which has the same violent impact as loud yelling. I have witnessed verbal interactions where one person was aggressive and the other person was scared, and the yelling was not loud.
Myth: Yelling is no big deal, you need to just get over it. Fact: if you have been injured by someone’s yelling, it is a legitimate wound that needs healing. Leaving it in your nervous system allows it to become stored in its painful state. Pain that is stored in your nervous system is easily triggered.
