    Seperated, but struggling to talk to my partner about what to do with our house

    Sorry if this is the wrong place to post this sort of thing, just don't know where else to ask. To make a long story short, after therapy it was revealed to me that I had Complex PTSD (fawn type reaction) likely from being in a psychologically abusive relationship (she is not diagnosed but my...

    A set back - I should not drink when focusing on getting my mental health right.

    Hi all. Been a while since I posted here. Last I posted I was in the process of leaving my relationship. I still am in that process, I guess, but I haven't returned 'home' for a long time and have been living at my aunt's place. I joined a nearby gym for the sake of forcing me to exercise, and...

    Why do I feel so bad about leaving?

    I'm in the midst of breaking up with my partner of 3 years. My therapist says I pretty much have to - that the constant walking on eggshells has really made my C-PTSD grow. I know deep down my therapist (and friends I've talked to) is right. Being in this relationship is causing me harm. I...

In terms of C-PTSD I'm not really sure what this means. There wasn't really an event to kick-off my C-PTSD, but really long exposure to stressful...

    Newly diagnosed. How do I make sense of all of this?

    Hi all, I'm a 38yo male, newly diagnosed with C-PTSD (with the Fawning repsonse type). I've been listening to a some YouTube video and listening to the audio book "Complex PTSD: From Surviving to Thriving" and whilst I tick almost all of the symptoms I'm not really sure how it came about...

    Sufferer Newly diagnosed and feeling lost at sea. Hoping to learn more here.

    Hi all, 38yo male here, recently diagnosed as the title says. I'm really hoping to learn more about C-PTSD. I've spent all of my adult life attempting treatments for depression. I've lost count of how many psychologists I've seen over the years, but probably at least 25. None helped, not...
