Yes, I agree that time is a great healer. Although during childhood we're very vulnerable and run the risk of developing unconstructive ways of coping and thinking. Carrying these habits over into adult life can cause further damage in wasted opportunities, low self-esteem etc.

This is not true. It is entirely possible to be traumatized for life and some wounds simply never heal. In particular if you lose a child or someone very close to you, chances are you will never recover.
Most wounds do heal though. Break ups usually do, even if it hurts really bad at first. Sometimes it can take a few years, it seems to me like people are very different when it comes to that.

Time just makes you forget about the wound. It doesn't heal it. People forget they are hurt. They live their lives covering up their wounds with weak little patches of happiness to preserve their own sanity. One little reminder though... Just a slight scrape at the afflicted area, and the person bleeds out just like the first time. They become reminded of all the pain and suffering they went through and they realize that nothing has changed. They didn't heal. They just forgot.

If you are open to the idea of being healed, you will be healed but there are of course several exceptions. Time ultimately makes you see things in the past in a more logical understandable way. The more you live life the more you understand about it. But sometimes people don't learn from their mistakes and are naive and believe that there won't be a "mental struggle" of any kind. Just don't let things affect you too much if they do!

Depends on the person's perspective, the magnitude of the trauma, and the amount of optimism they have.
If they're a depressed, pessimistic, emo... they may never recover from a trauma.
If they're a happy, optimistic, realistic person... they might get a shock or be temporarily traumatized, but heal completely after a long time.
Personally, I have a high amount of optimism, I'm a realistic thinker, laid-back, and I can see from most perspectives. Therefore, traumas don't hurt as much as they would a normal person. I bottle up the emotions, and let them go when the time is right. Then when they go, they're gone, and they don't come back.
