Life events can leave emotional traces. Some signs may appear long after the event itself.
Noticing Lingering Effects
For some people, exposure to overwhelming situations may lead to lasting internal tension. These effects are not always immediately visible and may surface through disrupted sleep, avoidance, or heightened alertness. A respectful self-assessment may help explore whether these patterns are worth reflecting on. While it is not a diagnosis, it could become a helpful step for those considering a deeper understanding of their emotional responses.
