I have a diagnosis of complex PTSD
for a while I thought maybe it was anxiety, something like bipolar, maybe traits of BPD with emotions being difficult to regulate but none of them completely fit
I believe my symptoms are linked to prolonged interpersonal trauma across my life, including growing up in a home with frequent conflict and emotional insecurity, being severely bullied throughout school, and later experiencing grooming, assaults, and other threatening situations. Since then, I have experienced chronic hypervigilance, persistent anxiety, nightmares, flashbacks, and avoidance of places or situations connected to traumatic experiences. I often feel constantly on edge and struggle to feel safe, particularly in relationships and social situations. I also find it very difficult to trust people or maintain close relationships, with strong emotional reactions .
It can be hard at times and it would be nice to talk to others or support others in similar situations
