What are flash-back exactly ? Can they be hallucinations ? I used to hear my trauma (like litteraly I could hear all the traumatising noises — and the noise was the traume since I haven't saw anything thanks god) idk if it count as flash-back ?

Flashbacks can present a several different ways with varying intensity. They can be like reliving the event, seeing it play in your head, or experiencing sensory input alone from the trauma (sounds, smells, etc.). So yes, what you described is a flashback.

Because the brain doesn’t prioritize memory processing during a traumatic event, (because it’s more concerned with keeping you safe), the “memory” isn’t completely formed, if at all, so triggers can confuse your brain with what’s in the past past and what’s the present.

All memories are associated with sensory input, so it may not feel as dramatic as what we think of when we hear “flashback”, it may just feel like remembering a distressing situation because it’s relevant. Technically, any memory that is summoned from external input could be called a flashback. When referring to trauma, it’s your brain noting things that were present/similar during the trauma, and it may trick your brain into reliving the event entirely.

trauma culture is "WHAT DO YOU MEAN I HAVE C-PTSD?!?!" I say as I distrust everyone in my life, even my own partners, can't look at people that look a certain way without being flashbanged by the visage of my groomer, can't look at certain THINGS without being reminded of The Incident, can't remember anything from the past 4 years, can't celebrate my own birthday without remembering the time I invited them over for my 18th and they stayed over, can't sleep without the looming threat of potential nightmares anymore, can't live without constant flashbacks and rumination, and are stuck in a constantly almost deluded belief that no matter what you do people are always going to hurt you via sxual abuse or overdependance on you, regardless of if you're friends, dating, or in a caregiver-regressor dynamic, so you keep everyone, even your polycule at an arm's length and vow that if anything bad happens you'll just reset your online presence and never date again until you're 30-40 ... and then realising how that all sounds when you lay it out and going "oh this shit was so bad i went from base game to modded + dlc im cooked" because I can't be serious about this otherwise i'll fall apart and i dont have a therapist i just have a support system of other traumatised individuals because the US healthcare system is dogshit -- 🐝🩲 (yoinking this sign off if its chill!)

of course! Welcome!

Trauma culture is your dumbass aunt being dumb enough to believe we don't talk about her abusive behaviour within the familly and don't try to protect each other.

Sure try to manipulate us by insinuating our step mother commited murder

Sure we don't talked about it to our step mother. Sure we won't stop you from talking to her kids (MY siblings), sure there's no way we stop you for using all of these vile manipulation methods.
