Researchers have identified two types of individuals, referred to as "orchids" and "dandelions", who react differently to trauma and stress, including coronavirus-related issues. The terms appear to be related to a psychological concept that suggests some people, like orchids, are more sensitive and require support to thrive, while others, like dandelions, are more resilient. The idea has been explored in various contexts, including parenting and child development, with some outlets discussing its implications for raising children and coping with trauma.
