Chapter 6: Posttraumatic Alterations of the Self

The traumatised self has a multidimensional identity often confronting each other that represents changes in the inner world of the traumatic experience. Such identity reflects reconfigurations and alterations of the self’s inner structural dimensions and psychological processes that it governs. In some extreme cases of trauma, the architecture of the self may be entirely altered, rearranged, reconstructed into new design of which the person is unaware or sees it as strange, unknown and unfamiliar. Trauma usually inflicted from an external source, causes damage, a loss of well-being and a change in physical or mental states that is painful, aversive and may result in a condition of prolonged traumatisation (Wilson, 2006).
