Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community

1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.

2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.

3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.

4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.

5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.

6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

Trauma is negative by definition. It isn't just a bad thing that you experience, it is an injury you receive as a consequence. Maybe you can find positive aspects of breaking a leg -- I get to work on my novel! -- but the injury is purely negative.

The injury is negative, how we react to it doesn't have to be. ;)

Yes. The injury is the trauma. It is negative. This post is about trauma. How we react to that trauma is a different thing. It can be positive or negative towards the goal of healing the trauma. But that's not what this post is about. These are the ways that psychological injury manifest, not how people react to those injuries.

Socks with sandals is certainly traumatic.

Oh, not a sock. That's a giant bandage. Sandal is the only thing that fits over it. :(
