Filmmaker and influencer, Alex Unusual, has recently criticized individuals who use childhood trauma as a justification for their problematic behavior. This comes in response to a therapist's assumption suggesting that self-isolation during overwhelming moments may indicate childhood struggles.
Addressing this on Instagram, Alex urged people to stop laying blame on their parents and others for their behavior as adults. She shared her disagreement with the notion that self-isolation directly relates to childhood hardships.
She argued that some individuals had positive childhoods but faced influential events as adults. Emphasizing the existence of childhood trauma, she stressed that adults should not use it as a rationale for negative perspectives or inadequate life adaptation skills.
