It's disappointing but not unexpected to see your comment downvoted. There's a reason CPTSD is considered even more difficult to treat than PTSD.

  > It's disappointing but not unexpected to see your comment downvoted. There's a reason CPTSD is considered even more difficult to treat than PTSD. As you have correctly pointed out: disappointing but not unexpected. I'm actually happy, it means that usually for people their worse experiences are high school bullies or broken ankles. It's a good thing. I wish it was true for everybody.

    The severity of bullying is a spectrum, and some of it can ruin someone for life. Claiming it's good because other things can be worse is another example of the fallacy of relative privation, and is not really a valid argument.

      > The severity of bullying is a spectrum we are talking about school bullying The power imbalance of school bullying usually solves itself with age (like in a year or two). > and some of it can ruin someone for life yeah, it happens, rarely but it happens. that's why I specifically wrote "except of course real traumas, like war or being abused" > it's good because other things can be worse it's good if that's the worst people usually suffer. Never said it's good in absolute.
