Psychotrauma is what leaves the consequences in the form of a change in the psyche.
It arises, since the mechanisms "protecting" the personality are stronger than the mechanisms that contribute to the development of the personality.
Mechanisms "protecting" the personality:
emotions: fear, horror, anxiety, states / properties: panic, insecurity, low self-esteem, nightmares, projection, transference, (especially from to objects with even slight similarities) apathy, motivation: avoidance
stagnation of development and a change in the worldview and level of interaction with the world
After this, auto-aggressive tendencies and hatred of the surrounding world appear again.

Also, insecurity and fear can also be interactive - fear for oneself, and not of traumatic circumstances.
Guilt is not considered as a primary sign of psychotrauma, since it is not associated with the general mechanisms of formation of avoidance of trauma and is secondary when a secondary change in the perception of the world occurs.
One of the most important mechanisms of triggering the "trap of trauma" is, among others: recognition (perception) of trauma.
Others are the perception and separation of individual signs from the environment, recognition (analysis and synthesis) and reactions associated with past emotional experience.
Proceeding from this, that this is a thought process associated with emotional experience, then it determines the methods that most respond to it: working with thinking and emotions and preferably taking into account just the avoidance and resistance that usually occurs.
Recognition when recognizing what is happening as "trauma" occurs according to separate stored signs, which in some cases can work against a person during his activities in an environment where these signs are not found.
It should also be noted that people with chronic neuroses and deformations associated with them phenomena in the personality are carriers of the same signs of psychotrauma as those living in the circumstances of psychotrauma by the way of reaction, but not always by the level.
Thus, many neuroses obey the same principles of trigger action as psychotrauma (phobias, neuroses with rituals, compulsions, etc.)
Thus, about the methods of influence, it can be concluded that those that change the attitude (emotions) in the first place, others will be effective, such as raising the threshold of response, non-recognition - that is, when circumstances seem to become normal (return to war), forgetting and avoiding - what the individual does by himself realizing his abilities often does not lead to such a result as a change in attitude (emotions).
At the same time, although when circumstances seem to become normal (return to war) also affects emotions, it uses personal resources and does not exclude secondary changes.
