@vital.minds.psych: Laughing through trauma isn’t ‘being dramatic’ or ‘not taking it seriously.’ It’s a protective coping strategy. When the nervous system feels overwhelmed, humour can create distance from pain and make the story feel safer to tell. If you catch yourself laughing while sharing something heavy, it doesn’t mean you’re okay, it means you’re surviving! #therapisthamilton #therapytok #vitalminds #trauma #copingmechanism
