Isn't trauma often permanent? Even if it's that a kid got his red fire truck stolen from him in kindergarten and now he has attachment issues. Or someone deals with horrible things in their past. It can be ridiculous or completely founded, but it's not fleeting or "very fast". It's not DNA but it _seems_ engrained, however incorrect the conclusion may be.

Trauma can be lifelong if it isn’t worked through, but some trauma can be worked through (and hallucinogens are showing promise of working through trauma quicker than medication&talk therapy alone). I think the actual emotional trauma response however is individually maybe 10-15 mins long at maximum, but feeling the emotion often causes you to think other triggering thoughts or behave in a manner exacerbating the trigger, thus making an individual 10-15 minute thing take hours to sort itself out.
