Wow. Your story sounds incredibly difficult. I can’t even imagine. I never perceived my moves as trauma but my T has. In my experience, the positives are that I am able to easily adapt and am fluent in 3 languages. I got to experience different cultures which I think is mostly good. On the down side, I did not have consistency or stability with long term relationships and had no one to model that.
