On tonight’s Medical Matters, we delve into an important and often overlooked issue: childhood trauma and its lifelong effects. Childhood trauma can profoundly impact an individual's mental, emotional, and physical well-being, shaping their experiences and relationships well into adulthood. As we observe National Child Protection Week, we will shed light on what childhood trauma is, how it manifests, it’s long terms effects into one’s adulthood and how we can create a safer environment or our children. According to Missing Children South Africa, 77% of children are found, can you imagine the trauma they have experienced and will continue to experience as they reintegrate into society? Joining us to have this discussion is Dr Alicia Porter,  Board Member of the South African Society of Psychiatrists.
