#coming from someone who hasn't experienced any traumatic incidents (I don't think so anyways)

Sometimes a character's healing arc includes them having to face the reason for why they're so broken, whether it be due to a certain incident or person either or works.
Maybe the incident comes up again, maybe something happens to them or someone else that vividly reminds them of that incident. Maybe the person who harmed them showed up again for whatever reason, either way they react negatively towards it.
They take a few steps back in their progress. They fall back to their old ways. Either way the people around them will do what they can to get them back on their feet even if it takes a little longer.
