Why on earth would having boundaries and not wanting to be someone’s free therapist make you a “mean girl” this is a strange take

Trauma Dumping to a stranger is a total no go and is very weird. But if they are your friend and partner, then I don’t see any issues. They trust u to go to u about something and I get the whole boundary issue but I would want my friends to come to me if they are having problems

Trauma dumping to anyone but a therapist is considered emotional abuse. Discussing trauma ≠ trauma dumping, they’re different. Trauma dumping is not a healthy, two-way conversation focused on supporting someone and giving them practical advice to heal from trauma. Trauma dumping is specifically when you overshare and dump all trauma at once, particularly in a convo where it doesn’t make sense. An example of this is when someone talks about something nice their dad did for them*

*and someone else chimes in with “eRm i DoN’t hAvE a dAd.” Hence why trauma dumping is abusive to anyone who isn’t trained to deal with that

No I totally agree with you, some people don’t understand the true meaning of trauma dumping and I wanted to clarify how I see it lol. Most people I interact with nowadays when they ask about my family and I tell them that my father passed away they are like, “I didnt ask for a trauma dump.” Thats the way I took this post

People like you are missing the point and it’s really annoying to see. Number two already did a great job of explaining the difference between discussing your trauma and trauma dumping, which are not the same. And it seems like everyone like you, who keeps getting upset is only doing so because y’all keep conflating the two. Trauma dumping is unfortunately a tactic that a lot of narcissist use as well, typically to be emotionally abusive on top of that

I agree that OP’s post didn’t do a good job of explaining that nuance, and in fact did seem like an inconsiderate butthole, but when you really think about it, it’s totally understandable why someone might get annoyed at someone trauma dumping, which again is not the same as discussing it in conversation.
