Unveiling the Narrative: Why I Write About Trauma and Invite You to Join the Journey

In the realm of mental health, beneath the surface of smiles and everyday routines, lies a narrative often left unspoken - the narrative of trauma. This silent force shapes lives, influencing emotions, behaviors, and relationships. It's a story that I've embarked upon, driven by several compelling reasons.

Unveiling the Unseen: Panic Attacks, Anxiety, and Depression as Trauma's Mask

Many individuals who seek help for panic attacks, anxiety, and depression carry a hidden burden - trauma. It's a silent companion, intricately woven into their experiences, often overlooked. I write to unveil this hidden layer, to give a voice to the unspoken struggles that trauma brings.


Beyond Symptoms: Trauma's Manifestation in Daily Life

Subtle grasp of laziness to the complexities of relationships, trauma's influence is profound. Through my writing, I aim to connect the dots, revealing the intricate ways trauma manifests in our actions.


Challenging Norms: Childhood Trauma in Nepalese Families

In Nepal, a societal norm prevails where trauma is unknowingly passed down from parents to children. Even in educated households, children often bear the weight of unfulfilled parental dreams. I write to challenge these norms, to shed light on the generational cycle of trauma, and to encourage reflection and change.


Parental Expectations: A Burden Transformed into Trauma

The perception that children are responsible for fulfilling their parents' dreams is a pervasive belief in Nepal. This compels parents to enforce decisions, unwittingly burdening their children. I write to bring attention to this burden, to explore its roots, and to advocate for a healthier approach to parenting.


Midlife Reflections: Trauma's Role in Career Setbacks

Career crashes in early adolescence and midlife are often linked to unrecognized trauma. By exploring this connection, I hope to offer insights that empower individuals to navigate their challenges, fostering understanding and resilience.


War's Lingering Impact: Trauma in Nepal's Midlife Generation

Nepal's midlife generation carries the weight of witnessing the civil war's horrors. Yet, collective trauma remains unaddressed. I write to prompt a collective reflection on these tumultuous times, fostering healing and understanding.


Invited to join on this journey

In inviting you to read all my articles, I extend an invitation to join this exploration of trauma. It's a journey toward awareness, empathy, and healing. By sharing these narratives, I hope to create a space where stories are heard and understood, and where the journey toward mental well-being is one we undertake together. Join me, and let's navigate the complexities of trauma with compassion and resilience.

About Author

D.R. Bhatta, MA, (Ph.D. Scholar), Psychologist (Nepal)

Since 2015, I've been working as a psychologist in Nepal, offering in-person and online services globally. My areas of expertise include trauma, personality disorders (particularly Borderline and Histrionic), and Adult ADHD. But my curiosity extends far beyond these! I'm a voracious reader, devouring books on everything from spirituality and science to ancient religions, metaphysics, and of course, psychology.

This blog is my way of fostering open and honest conversations about mental health, especially for young adults (aged 18-35) around the world. I believe knowledge is power, and I want to empower you to navigate mental health challenges.

Here's where you come in! By sharing this blog on social media, you can help me on this mission to create a more informed and supportive global community. Let's break down stigmas and empower each other!
