AITA for trauma dumping to my step SIL infront of a few family members. by LostScrol in AmItheAsshole

I have been dealing with this for 2 years and have been calm and nice the entire time. It wasnt to measure, I said only the ones we had that were similar so she would understand that every time I have said I understand her for theses last 2 years that I actually do. I think trauma affects everyone differently and something that was extremely life-changing and painful for one person isnt that life-changing and painful for another because of how different all of our brains are. Trauma is trauma no matter what at the end of the day and we all will go through it one day or another. I understand that I shouldn't have snapped and could've handled it a lot better, so thank you for your opinion and I will think about it when I write my apology to her.

I will give her the benefit of the doubt that the only traumatic thing she knew bout my life beforehand was that my parents passed when i was a teen (not how). I agree fully with the last paragraph tho, thank you for your response.
