Complex PTSD

Was it not that bad?

If someone were to inquire about your life, your immediate response might be, “I had a good childhood” or “It could have been worse.”

However, here you are, grappling with the constant weight of anxiety and depression, which has become an unwelcome companion.

Reflecting on your present life often leads to thoughts like, “I should be happier than I am.”

Questioning yourself and those around you has become a persistent endeavor.

Be cautious.

Navigating the world with caution has become your standard. You tread carefully, uncertain about what might trigger overwhelming emotions, emotional outbursts, or destructive interactions with others.

Opting for a smaller life seems like the answer. Therefore, you avoid activities you might genuinely enjoy because the prospect of battling discomfort and anxiety seems daunting.

Why does it feel like others can effortlessly engage in activities that drain so much of your energy?

The path forward appears to be disconnection.

Complex trauma (C-PTSD) casts its influence across every aspect of your existence, dismantling your sense of self, complicating connections with others, and making everyday interactions with the world seem terrifying and worth evading.

Most days, you feel like a prisoner of your thoughts, isolated and profoundly alone.

Sharing your experience with someone else is an uphill battle, as most people struggle to comprehend.
