Why Do Certain Things Affect Me So Deeply?

Discover the Hidden Roots Behind Emotional Triggers by downloading this FREE self reflective questionnaire

Do you sometimes feel anxious, overwhelmed or emotionally out of balance and you’re not quite sure why?

You may be experiencing the impact of what’s known as “little t” trauma - subtle, everyday emotional stressors that build up over time but often go unnoticed.

These aren’t the big, obvious traumas we usually think of. Instead, they’re small but persistent experiences like:

Feeling emotionally neglected or unseen

Being criticised or second-guessed

Subtle rejection or belittling

Unresolved family expectations

Micro-aggressions or emotional invalidation

Over time, these experiences can leave you feeling insecure, emotionally dysregulated, or stuck in unhelpful patterns - even if you can’t pinpoint a single cause.

This free self-reflection questionnaire can help you:

Start identifying where these patterns may have developed

Gain clarity on how past experiences may be affecting you today

Understand why certain situations trigger strong emotional reactions

Take the first steps toward greater emotional awareness and healing
