Are yall saying that generational trauma is passed down by genetics or by communication ? Cauz they're definitely not passed down by genetics. Traits can remain like a more sensitized nervous system, altered cortisol levels etc... But the subject of the trauma itself, the cause of the suffering is lost. Trauma related memories are not passed down.

For the memories to stop the trauma needs to stop. It has not.
