And regardless of whether it's big and dramatic or not, I'm sure I have trauma responses to it.

So I guess I don't agree. I think trauma can be a useful framing. I haven't really unpacked mine yet, but I know it's there, all mixed up with other stuff.

As far as medicalizing it, dysphoria sounds much more like a mental illness then trauma to me. I respect those who feel differently though. Whatever works for them is what they should use.
