Alphagenic + Betagenic Systems
Alphagenic systems are systems that were formed primarily by Type A trauma.
They might- and probably do- also have Type B trauma, but it was not a significant factor in their system’s initial formation. While alphagenic does fall under the traumagenic umbrella, some alphagenic systems may choose to identify as endogenic or quoigenic due to the mainstream traumagenic community being focused around Type B trauma.
The grey in the flag represents dissociation and hiddenness, because of the nature of Type A trauma being more difficult to spot than type B. The blue stripe represents loneliness, sorrow, and hurt that is common in alphagens’ origins, as well as representing calmness, healing, and internal community. Red represents trauma in general, as well as anger that can be healing, protective, or harmful, and white represents hope.
Betagenic systems are systems that were formed primarily by Type B trauma.
They might- and probably do- also have Type A trauma, but it was not a significant factor in their system’s initial formation.
The gray stripes represent dissociation, red trauma, white hope and community, and yellow bravery and strength.
