The Industrialization of Psychological Trauma, or How Human Suffering Is Instrumentalized

psychological trauma, PTSD, commodificationAbstract
Undoubtedly, the trauma narrative occupies a particularly prominent position within the fields of psychology and psychiatry. Dozens of specialized mental health professionals seek to alleviate individuals from their traumatic past, aiming toward inner harmony and self-actualization. The therapeutic narrative surrounding the consequences of psychological trauma appears across various social domains (individual or group therapy sessions, self-actualization groups, television programs), where human suffering is presented as a structural component of the subject’s very identity. Within this framework, psychological trauma is reduced to a personal experience, becomes an object of consumption, and is depoliticized. Insofar as the social causes that may give rise to it are not addressed, it is transformed into a form of spectacle, while treatment itself becomes a consumer product. This article aims to highlight the ways in which psychological trauma and human suffering are instrumentalized and commodified within the context of a neoliberal ideology.
