How do you manage your traumas?

No matter any other considerations, I have determined on a course of Love. Thus my past traumas are irrelevant, for it is the present trauma that some other suffers which it is my goal to succor. No matter what happens, the job remains the same - to love and care for those around me (not excluding myself).

I take the next step, and the one after that.
