Getting Over Trauma

In you opinion, what is the best way to get over trauma?  Why?

     Everyone gets over trauma in their own way; some people turn to alcohol, some turn to drugs, some turn to other people.  In my opinion, the best way to get over trauma is to talk with another person about it and tell them what you are going through.  Letting someone else know how you feel can ease the pain of being the only one to experience the traumatizing event.  Psychiatrists and therapists are good people to go to, since they are professionally trained to help people, but sometimes family members are just as good if not better because they already know you.
