I agree with Orange and Sad. 
I also think it has a bit to do with who you are as a person. Everyone's perception of trauma is different to a certain degree.
I don't know if that came out right though...?
I guess what I'm saying is...I am a highly sensitive person. You put me in any type of abusive environment and I'm gonna take it hard, and spin out of control. Where as, you put someone who is not such a sensitive person into that same situation and they will not find it as traumatizing. Not because the abusive situation lost it's badness or was not traumatizing, but because the persons internal workup is built differently and they may perceive the situation as not as threatening.
I hope that makes sense....
