Are you struggling with the effects of C-PTSD?
Right now, you may be experiencing:
- Feeling constantly on edge, hypervigilant, or easily startled, even when there’s no apparent danger
- Intense emotional flashbacks that pull you back into the feelings of past trauma
- Deep-seated feelings of worthlessness, shame, or guilt that seem unshakable
- Significant difficulties trusting others, leading to isolation or volatile relationships
- A distorted sense of self, feeling fundamentally damaged or different from others
- Chronic physical symptoms like fatigue, pain, or digestive issues with no clear medical cause
- Periods of dissociation, feeling detached from your body, emotions, or reality
You're realizing that your C-PTSD are getting in the way of your life:
- Your relationships are consistently challenging, marked by patterns of avoidance, conflict, or clinging
- You struggle to maintain stability in work or daily routines due to emotional overwhelm or triggers
- Your sense of self is fragmented, making it hard to know what you truly want or who you are
- You avoid situations, people, or feelings that might trigger traumatic memories or intense emotions
- The persistent feeling of being unsafe makes it difficult to relax, enjoy life, or plan for the future
- You might turn to unhealthy coping mechanisms (substances, self-harm, disordered eating) to manage the internal pain
You’re wondering…
- Will I ever feel safe in the world or in my own skin?
- Is it possible to heal from trauma that happened over such a long period?
- Why do I struggle so much with relationships and trusting people?
- Can I ever feel like a whole person, not just a collection of symptoms?
- How is C-PTSD different from regular PTSD, and does the treatment differ?
- Could EMDR really help with something this deep and complex?
You’re longing for…
- A sense of inner peace and safety, regardless of your external circumstances.
- Stable, trusting relationships where you can be authentic and feel secure.
- A cohesive sense of self, feeling worthy and capable.
- The ability to regulate your emotions without being overwhelmed or shutting down.
- Freedom from the constant intrusion of past trauma into your present life.
- Hope for a future where you are defined by your resilience, not your trauma.
