This is my personal experience with CPTSD and is not medical advice.

Some content may be triggering to some but I want to give an honest view of my life with CPTSD

Throughout the years I have learned quite a bit about CPTSD and unfortunately experienced quite a bit too. While my goal is to get those who need help to that help, I want everyone to see the reality of what it does to those who suffer. Seeing the reality of my struggles with CPTSD may help someone recognize it in themselves or a loved one and recognizing that none of this hell is normal….it is reality… it IS how our brain reacts and symptoms of the big picture. It’s something to recognize and it’s OK to seek help…. YOU ARE NOT ALONE!!!

Some of my coping mechanisms are definitely against medical advice but sometimes it’s just about the coping. And some of my thoughts or feelings aren’t always in a good place. This is my journey and what has worked for me and what hasn’t along with the ups and downs.
