trauma can show up later in life as PTSD and OCD. absolutely.
Its about how you wind up dealing with the trauma. Using calming behavior patterns or rituals to deal with it, or repressing it and having it come out in bursts as re-experiencing and hyperarousal.
At least youre not engaging in substance abuse as a means to deal with it.
