i think what you put in the boxes can be brief. as for the trauma, it can be anything you remember that has caused you pain. for me, i dont remember much before age 12, but at 17 i flashed back to my dad smashing my favorite toy so i would write "dad smashes toy" in a box. "brother smothers me" "nearly drown" "physical abuse". You can go over the details of the events with you T. And please dont stress yourself about having to get it right. there is no right or wrong when it comes to this stuff. You do what you can handle.
