And then others can read your own comment history about the 'minor' traumas and the impacts that has had on relationships in your own life.

At least from your writing I believe you're a very introspective person. The trouble with introspection is that it is an imperfect mirror. We tend to self find solutions for our problems, but we do so at the risk of completely missing the blind spots in our life.

Coming back at the previous person with the term condescending is concerning. At least my observation is you believe you have covered all of your bases, but this gets problematic in cases of omission. Yea, your parents did not hit you, but that does not mean they taught you how to have healthy relationships, for example, something that leads to a lifetime of trauma in some people due omissive ignorance.

Honestly, I've always been doubtful of therapy and how well it could work for me but your comments made it click for me. Thank you!

The last paragraph is a really good insight. We tend to view a "good" upbringing as purely the absence of trauma, but it requires the active presence of teaching important skills and modeling healthy relationships.

Simply never being in a car accident while growing up doesn't mean you spontaneously know how to drive a car.
