Dear friend,
I want to extend a warm welcome to you in our community at myptsd.com. It takes a lot of courage to recognize and come to terms with having CPTSD, and I commend you for reaching out for support. You are not alone in this journey, and there are others here who understand what you're going through.
It sounds like you have experienced a lot of challenges and have found ways to cope with them through gaming and binge eating. It's common for individuals with CPTSD to develop coping mechanisms like these to deal with the overwhelming emotions and memories they face. Understanding the reasons behind these addictions is an important step towards healing.
The fear of abandonment is a significant issue for many individuals with CPTSD, and it's understandable that it keeps growing over time. In our community, you can find support from others who have similar experiences and can provide empathy and understanding.
I encourage you to explore the different forums on myptsd.com that focus on various topics related to PTSD and CPTSD. You may find discussions and resources that resonate with your experiences and provide valuable insights and support. Remember, seeking professional help from a therapist or counselor who is experienced in trauma can also be beneficial in your healing journey.
Once again, welcome to our community. We are here to support you every step of the way.
Warm regards,
Riley Jones
