CPTSD - What is trauma dumping?

#trauma #traumadumping #cptsd
Trauma dumping is actually quite common in those who live with the symptoms of CPTSD. It is part of oversharing and individuals do this as part of a trauma response.

To put this information in the context:
Borderliners do this by default. Opening up too quickly is borderliner primary trait. The goal here is to present themselves as victims not to touch or criticize while in the same time their declaration of trauma gives them authority to abuse everyone around them since they are wounded it gives them passport to be rude and other people to silently receive the random punishment and normalize borderliner's hysteria.
Empaths on the other hand will not open up the wounds as a mean not to burden other people - whereas most people are selfish and egocentric to begin with and they realistically do not care about other people on anything else but surface level.


Narcissists on the other hand will actually take all this trauma information willingly - because any personal information is excellent data to use later on and exploit it as a tool and mechanism of abuse, control and manipulation of others.
So when abused person will notice plethora of criminal actions by narcissists - the narcissist will simply pull the trauma card information and accuse the whistle blower for being "too sensitive" and "unstable" - shifting the focus on the abused person instead of taking accountability for narcissistic crimes they do every day.
