Don't know if that makes sense or not. I couldn't find wording for it.

Just a wonder question.
Yes that makes absolute sense to me.

I think what happened to me has contributed to who I am. The negative stuff but it also has created a level of sensitivity that has some positive aspects. I sometimes work with people who are suicidal and having such a deep understanding has been helpful in my work with them.

And yes, for me, I think I have always had a level of sensitivity, trust in others, which was badly betrayed. Maybe if I wasn't who I am, I wouldn't have felt this so deeply.
