There's a type of trauma and abuse that is referred to as 'insidious' trauma too. This is a type of abuse that is so subtle at first that you don't notice it and it is only after continuous exposure that you can highlight it. This is a type of abuse that escalates so slowly that most victims aren't aware that what they are experiencing is abuse until looking back to the beginning after a stretch of time. I'm sure I've got articles about this somewhere so I'll look for these for you.
