Trauma Brag

To brag, highlight, or bring attention to hardship that one has experienced. Examples include highlighting one's experience of poverty, illness, abuse, or adversity

These types of brags get attention for higher status signalers and dismissal for low status ones

Trauma farming

Using others peoples traumatic life events or circumstances for content. Especially for clout and or traction. Often disguised as attempts to garner mass help, often for a go fund me etc. The trauma farmer doesn’t directly benefit from the go fund me but rather benefits by using other peoples exceptional circumstances to drive attention on their content.

trauma salad

A game you play with a friend or two and you record yourself on video taking turns pouring candy into a giant bowl while explaining a story about a true traumatic event. One story per bag of candy. The goal is to see how big the salad can go and you eat it at the end to celebrate healing.

Let's make a trauma salad and post it on tiktok.
