Complex PTSD

What is it?

Sometimes, prolonged or repeated exposure to interpersonal violence or abuse results in extreme forms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). This is known as Complex PTSD and requires professional treatment and support.

3 Reasons it Matters

1. A Complex PTSD diagnosis acknowledges and gives context to why a person may be living in a constant state of low-grade anxiety or depression.
2. Understanding the root cause of Complex PTSD helps a person understand the origin of their inability to feel safe and respected, as well as their difficulty in trusting others.
3. Many people have physical symptoms resulting from complex PTSD, i.e., headaches, back pain, gastrointestinal distress, joint pain, etc.
