"创伤不是发生在你身上的事,而是发生在你内心的事,是你对发生在你身上的事的反应。"

Simplified Meaning:

When something bad happens, the real damage isn't just about the event itself but how it affects your feelings and thoughts inside. Imagine a child who gets bullied at school. The bullying is the event, but the hurt and fear that the child feels inside – feeling worthless or scared – are the real problems. It changes how they see themselves and the world. Over time, this inner pain can affect their behavior, confidence, and relationships. To heal, it's important to deal with these inner feelings, not just focus on what happened. By understanding and talking about these emotions, someone can start to feel better and regain their sense of self.
