What is CPTSD to you?

Complex PTSD or CPTSD to me is a set of symptoms experienced as a result of childhood or other complex trauma, which keeps dysregulating a person emotionally, physically, and otherwise on into adulthood. These experiences are negative and many times include physical, sexual, emotional abuse or all three. The symptoms of CPTSD can be hard to target with traditional trauma interventions, because they are not distinct experiences, but usually clusters of memories, negative beliefs, and feelings.
