I følge Google AI så er traumedumping "Trauma dumping is the act of sharing intensely distressing or painful emotions and experiences with others without their consent, often leading to an imbalance in the relationship where the listener feels drained. This is different from healthy venting because it lacks consideration for the listener's boundaries, doesn't allow for a two-sided conversation, and isn't focused on finding solutions. It can occur in person or online and can negatively impact both the person sharing and the person listening."

Aud Jektvik skal ha et foredrag om dette fenomenet. Finnes det?, hvordan skal vi i så fall forholde oss til det?, særlig i LHBT+ miljøer, og hva kan vi gjøre i stedet for å traumedumpe.
