The meaning of the term trauma has been taken from a "stress or blow that may produce disordered feelings or behavior" to a "state or condition produced by such a stress or blow". In other words, the term trauma refers to the state of mind which results from an injury. It is a fantasy which can be read as an articulation of trauma. It is a devastating and damaging experience. It is an experience lived belatedly at the level of its unspeakable truth which is revealed in psychoanalytic theory. So that psychoanalysis can consider the "textual anxieties" surrounding the representation of trauma.</p>}, number={11}, journal={Galaxy International Interdisciplinary Research Journal}, author={Dr.Pradnyashailee Bhagwan Sawai}, year={2021}, month={Nov.}, pages={282–285} }
