Speaking personally I don't think ACEs made me any stronger and I think I am where I am now in spite of them.

I mean of course. If you have adverse childhood experiences you probably are more likely to come from a dysfunctional and poor place. You eat bad foods frequently and are around alcohol, tobacco, and drug use and more likely to become a problem user of them.

It’s also likely the genetic material being passed on to you isn’t helpful in overcoming these things when you have control of them.
