Trauma claimers are similar to trauma queens, but without genuine trauma. Trauma claimers will claim every possible thing is "trauma" that leaves them with long-term mental illness, despite not having symptoms like avoidance, minimization, withdrawal.
The word trauma is always used (not abuse) since if they falsely claim abuse it's easier to call out their nonsense.
Self-diagnosed, they haven't seen the diagnostic criteria (film and TV are excluded). Trauma claimers insist they and ONLY they can define what trauma is, and demand YOU accept it.
Trauma claimers expect instant support despite their trauma olympics claims and instantly validate the "trauma" of others. Discord and tiktok enable this.
If challenged, trauma claimers vent narcissistic rage, show childishness, a sense of entitlement, and insensitivity towards people with PTSD. They attack traumat survivors eg calling them privileged for having their PTSD diagnosed. Fear of conflict and fake-claiming is used in order to redefine reality and drive away others.
Trauma claimers have no interest in healing, support sites or mental health. They will ask rape victims for help with the "flashbacks" of a movie trailer they **chose** to watch yesterday.
Trauma claimers spread harmful myths about mental health treatment discouraging others from using it. They probably do need mental health help - just not for their fake traumas. Some may have distressing, untreated maladaptive daydreaming instead.

Yesterday Alex, a trauma claimer, said watching a Netflix trailer was "trauma" so bad that she had created a new personality to cope with it, despite the fact people with DID (multiple personalities) have called her on this and said it's not possible. Last week she claimed PTSD from struggling to find a parking space! Alex was furious when I suggested mental health support and avoiding trailers. Alex is a trauna claimer who is always looking for another ***enabler***.
