How well do you know your texting slang?
A traumaversary is the anniversary of an event that has caused trauma for a person, such as the loss of a loved one or the day they found out their parents were getting divorced. People typically use the term on social media when sharing about a traumatic event they have experienced and how they are coping.
For example, a person may post on Twitter, "Today is my traumaversary. I've worked through a lot since my dad's unexpected passing, but it still hits me hard." Or, a person may post on Reddit, "How do I deal with a traumaversary?"
People may also use traumaversary jokingly to describe things that were horrifically memorable but not in an actually horrific way. For example, a TV show fan may post about the traumaversary of when a couple in the show they shipped broke up, causing them distress. Or, a person may post the traumaversary of when they saw an incredibly cringe video of celebrities trying to relate with normal people (a la the "Imagine" video by Gal Gadot).
