<![CDATA[This study aims to investigate in depth how adolescents interpret their experiences of double trauma resulting from exposure to domestic violence and peer bullying. Using a qualitative approach with narrative analysis, this study examines the impact of these traumatic experiences on the development of aggressive behavior and anxiety patterns in four adolescent informants from broken homes. The results indicate that exposure to violence at home and school creates a phenomenon of poly-victimization that undermines adolescents' sense of security and destroys their psychological structure. Informants interpret their experiences as an existential threat that triggers an emotional transition from helplessness and deep sadness to reactive aggression and destructive desire for revenge. Distorted coping mechanisms were found, such as bringing sharp weapons to school as a form of extreme self-defense. In addition, this trauma caused an identity crisis, the erosion of self-confidence, and the emergence of significant trust issues with the social environment. The study concluded that domestic violence internalized through identification with the perpetrator encourages adolescents to use aggression as their primary means of survival. These findings emphasize the importance of comprehensive psychosocial interventions to break the cycle of trauma and prevent the escalation of criminal behavior in the future.
