Emotional damage is a term used to describe the psychological and physical effects of traumatic events. TRAUMA, a 6-letter word, is defined as a deeply distressing or disturbing experience, while SCAR, a 4-letter word, is defined as an area of discolored skin that remains after a wound or injury has healed. Both TRAUMA and scarring can cause emotional damage, which can manifest in a variety of ways, including depression, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress disorder.
