It describes a non standardized set of reasons why an individual survives and is able to thrive after a tragedy or insult. Like many labels, it is mearly meant to describe the outcome and not the process. I look at it as a way of shrugging the professional shoulders and admitting that they really don't know why someone survived and thrived while acknowledging that they did. As labels go it is pretty neutral. JMO.
Thanks everyone for sharing. While not an abuse victim I know more than a few people who have survived and a few who have been able to thrive.
