Complex PTSD affects the brain long-term and can affect your closest relationships

Unresolved trauma from childhood can have permanent effects on adulthood, but help is available to cure the symptoms and stop the pain.

    I was severely traumatized years ago as a teenage, got diagnosed with cptsd. Spent my whole life fighting cptsd. I suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Not until my wife recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms.

    Hey mates! Can you help with the source? I suffer severe anxiety, panic and depression and I usually take prescription medicine, but they don't always help. Where can I find those psilocybin mushrooms? I'm really interested in treating my mental health without Rxs. I live in Australia don't know much about these. I'm so glad they helped you. I can't wait to get them too. Really need a reliable source 🙏

    100% agree I used to have Psychosis and paranoid thoughts like "people thinking about me talking about me etc. Very odd behavior after getting off Adderall from 7-16. Antidepressants at 18-29. 31 now. I took way to much, but took about 20g of Gold caps (Psilocybin containing mushroom) I analyzed my entire life. The emotions that came out helped me understand behavior etc more. Wont ever need to do it again because I'm happy and contempt forever, but I wish more people did this to alter their perception of reality. Would help with healing much trauma

My message to parents is simple, it is easier to protect a child, then to fix a broken adult!

    yea. I was with a bunch of manipulative guys, and thought that was bad, but now the last 2 guys have almost killed me. Both of them. One I was good friends with for many years, and then after just a few months he beat me and sat and jumped on my head against a stone... And the other. Im still not really over. We were back and forth for years. He had problems with himself but was so kind to me. Kindest person I ever knew. And then one night, we were both drunk, I was crying and he got sooo angry at me for no reason, Ive NEVER saw him angry before, and then he choked me out, I tried to scream, he lifted me by the throat and threw me across the room, strangled me for a good while, and then punched my face multiple times so I had a black eye for weeks. Both times the doctors said I was I was lucky to not get cracks in my scull.

    You don't necessarily need nightmares. That's ptsd. With cptsd you can have just emotional flashbacks at boatloads of triggers cause the shit is dissociated from, buried, fuzzy memory or blank. It can have an emotional and somatic component. Your feeling and your body sensations get jacked up. Not necessarily visual memories. Although they can crop up years later. Medication won't fix child abuse. You have to form new pathways by creating a new healthy life you were never taught growing up.

That is the thing that makes me sad for all of you and that I’m thankful to have for myself.

    Microdosing Psilocybin and taking Lion's Mane can allow the brain to rewire itself and heal bad sectors caused by childhood trauma. I am a 55M who has suffered CPTSD my entire adult life. It has had a profound effect on almost all aspects of my life and my journey to healing has been long and arduous to say the least. Very pleased to have discovered microdosing and its nervous system healing effects. It has changed my life by allowing me to reshape my internal landscape from one of fear, anxiety, anger and depression to one that can access a place of deep calm and love for myself, others and life in general. This awareness has opened or engaged a spiritual component of my being I was not connected to and barely aware of. This has brought a sense of connected contentment that allows me to be comfortable where I am in life and in myself. The change is so profound its almost miraculous.

    Important to say this. C-PTSD relates to repeated trauma in life. So, it is not necessarily all hinged on childhood. There are millions of people with this condition who had perfectly healthy childhoods, but due to other traumas throughout their lives, they became overloaded/burned out and their fight/flight response become dysregulated and over sensitised. It always saddens me that there are people out there who can 'cause' trauma in others but who sail through life, only to repeat that pattern time and time again. Perhaps in the future we could look to educate other people on how to behave in society and with other people. Let's focus on the bullies in life because the poor victims are always stigmatised.

    I just want to correct this video a bit, because CPTSD isn't just brought about beginning in or throughout childhood. It's more categorized as complex because there is more of an emphasis on constant, one-after-the-other traumatic events. It's more about relentless traumatic events over a long period of time. But yeah, unfortunately rates are higher for those with adverse childhoods in the first place as it sets one up for a tougher life with less tools. I just wanted to make that clear so that no one misunderstands CPTSD to be a classification that is limited to or must include childhood events.

    I have been doing research upon research about what’s happened to my brain dude. I was diagnosed with ptsd when I was 13-14, ever since then I haven’t done anything with my life. I feel trapped in my own head. I feel like I’m going crazy half of the time, the constant anxiety, nightmares that haven’t changed since childhood, paranoia. Makes me feel like I’m psychotic really. I don’t know what triggered this curse, this brain condition. I wouldn’t wish this on anyone. I should’ve been treating it when it first started, cos now it feels like I’m drowning in whatever it is. I’ve lost all my friends, I can’t maintain a job because I have breakdowns and quit or get fired , noises bother me, being around others terrifies me. I feel broken, my brain feels fried and I wish I could just wake up. I want to get help, but I fear that just like I do everything else. Nobody in my family understands , friends are confused. I feel like I’m losing it, like there’s this imaginary issue in my head only I see. Everyone else just thinks I’m a b*tch Or I’m sad all the time. Man it’s a trip having ptsd.

    I’m so sorry for what your experiencing, it is excruciating. I don’t know if it could help, probably you’ve tried everything already,but maybe changing your enviroment and travel (like with workaway if you don’t have much resources), it’s the only thing that helped me cool down the “brain wires” that were always stimulated and overworked with triggers in my childhood home/city. EMDR also helped me somewhat, but for that to work it really takes long time with a psychoterapist which may be difficult for you right now. It may also help to help in animal sanctuary/shelters if you can’t leave your city right now. These aren’t solutions but just little things to reignite little sparks of “here and now” instead of the constant brain terror that ptsd subjectes us. If I was insensitive because these are things you’ve already tried or may be triggering for your past trauma (since it’s very personal for everyone), I’m really sorry, but I hope with sincerity that you my start to heal little by little soon.

    I've spent the last two years reading up on why my life was such a mess and I'm now waiting to see a psychotherapist to determine whether my inkling that I am suffering from C-PTSD is right. I grew up in a broken household with parents who were complete narcissists, self obsessed and were clearly incapable parents. After my parents divorced, I thought it would get better but no, my mothers bi-polar disorder and constant threats to commit suicide affected me deeply as long as I lived at home and long after I left home, with the common symptoms of feeling of lack of worth and all of the other symptoms in the primary list. Hopefully, I can get thru this.

    To the people that are saying that it's not just in childhood: the growing infant to teen brain is different from the mostly formed adult brain. I do agree that sustained trauma at any age can be a thing, I just don’t think it’s the same as never knowing what a normal baseline is/ having your brain damage to the point of not even knowing what you’re doing. I thought I was being misunderstood but the truth was I was hurting people with trauma responses that were an echo of how I was treated during childhood. When you have a broken nervous system from a young age anything that happens in adulthood is just compounding the issue.

    What is frustrating is it's NOT just traumas that are prolonged during childhood. This excludes prolonged traumas during adulthood. There are many forms of different betrayal traumas, for example, not just infidelity that also can cause CPTSD. Betrayal trauma is another aspect that needs to be more inclusive, that is usually only discussed re infidelity. Complex can and should be defined as truly complex, not honed or limited to childhood, and betrayal not honed to only infidelity. PTSD started out that way, and became more broad in definition. Symptomolgy or symptomatology supports this, and should include a wider causality for CPTSD.

    Complex trauma in childhood affects brain development in significant and unique ways that carry into adulthood that's why it is categorized separately from PTSD in adulthood. As an adult, the brain is already developed so trauma affects adult brains very differently than children's brains and we know that now due to fMRI scans.

    It's an important topic, and thanks for covering it. When you say, however, that "help is available to cure the symptoms and stop the pain", I think you're oversimplifying and overly optimistic. How about a story on those attempting to heal and the obstacles involved? One that acknowledges that the DSM failed to include diagnosis, and that long-term therapy is necessary and very expensive, and that many of the medications that are used to stop the symptoms (cure is inaccurate) and stop the pain are actually a hindrance to a "cure." Please do a story about people who are trying to heal so that the true reality of it is very much different than a "take this, do that and you're good.

It's absence, as you said, leaves insured people arguing, with increased ammunition, for the care that they need, and for the duration necessary. It also creates a large number of person's being treated for symptoms, while the underlying "trauma" goes untreated. The number of specialists for this is scant when facing the sheer epidemic which it is. Meanwhile, 10 CBT sessions and an ever-evolving cocktail of psychotropics are the only "support" on the menu.

Bullying is peer abuse and often involves a lot more than children being mean to one another. What comes with bullying in school is often teachers blaming and punishing the victim or joining in on the bullying, and also many parents minimize the effects of bullying due to how society at large minimizes and mythologizes it.

    I now know I have had CPTSD since the age of 5. I always knew I was "Different" but didn't know why. I began a Counselling Course when I was 60 and things began to emerge from my mind. Being abused from childhood had continued all through my life and I thought it was ok??? I am now working through everything and beginning to like myself. I am enjoying my new life now age 72. I am sorry for all the years when I didn't know WHY. Don't allow THEM to win.

    You've managed to explain it very wrong. Complex PTSD is trauma from an event that had been ONGOING FOR SOME TIME (domestic abuse, going to war or fleeing unsafe countries heavily indicates it doesn't necessarily HAVE to be childhood trauma. Adults in these situations can develop it. School bullying is another big contributor outside of family issues for children) Regular PTSD is trauma from a single event like an accident, natural disaster, or animal attack, for example. Get it right before you report stuff bro

    CPTSD is absolutely hell to deal with. I’ve exclusively ended up with partners that are either emotionally distant or emotionally abusive. I’m scared to leave the house. I never feel like a human being. The worst part is that my dad “just” screamed at and mocked me, so I never feel like I have a right to be upset about it.

    Masochism only develops as a result of childhood trauma, and mascochism is directly correlated with gender and sexual identity issues in males and females. The correct name for the exact issue is autogynephilia, which I’m guessing you probably know about, and while transitioning may seem like it will help, it never makes you feel better, overall. The gender identity industry is so powerful now that it’s just about impossible for someone to get high quality trauma therapy if they even mention they have gender identity issues. I believe the NHS is better about it than the American “healthcare” system, but it’s still not easy in the UK. I urge you to not mention that you are having issues regarding your GI when you get to speak to a therapist, as they will ignore all of your C-PTSD related problems, and likely encourage you to transition. If you are able to identify that your GI are connected to trauma, that’s huge, and I believe your prognosis is so much better than that of someone who literally believes they were born in the wrong body.

    @@katieandnick4113 AGP is a highly controversial theory, and in discussion with AGP advocates it became clear that I do not have that either. The AGP model doesn't fit me, nor does the standard transgender model. I'm not trans and do not desire to transition. But neither am I a man. There is no real therapy available on the NHS for anything. To speak to a gender expert requires a 5-10 year wait just for an initial assessment. CPTSD therapy takes years also. And in both cases it's unlikely the quality will be anything close to good.

    @@someonesomeone25 I’m so sorry. I understand AGP to be egodystonic, so I can see why you’re precluded from that category. I do still believe that men with AGP develop it due to pretty substantial childhoods trauma, probably of a sex ual nature, but I can’t say I’m certain about the latter part. I’m actually very curious if you know your MBTI(if you put much worth in that at all; if not, I understand). I have a hypothesis that INFJ types are especially resistant to developing egodystonic trauma disorders.

    what to do when you are too physically ill, on top of having C PTSD or PTSD, to even deal with all the problems in your life? I am a victim 9f medical malpractice (HA septic shock) that destroyed nearly every organ iin my body. Because the local doctors have covered for the offender, I cannot get decent medical care. Also, after work8ng for 45 years, I cannot afford desperately needed dental care. Medicaid says I make too much from my SSD and small retirement ...because I worked my entire life, I am being punished in a way. I used to be a great problem solver...now I have no clue what to do but suffer.

    Hey everyone, as someone diagnosed with C-PTSD from a horrific childhood with a single BPD mother (financial, physical, verbal abuse and neglect from a very young age) I want to recommend IFS (Internal Family Systems) therapy which is done by a trained IFS counsellor. This type of therapy where you see yourself and others as having different parts (wounded part, protector part, etc.) which work together was life changing for me. IFS and MDMA-assisted therapy were the paramount experiences of my healing journey after years of trying different talk therapy, traditional and spiritual modalities. I hope this helps!

    What would happen if I wasn't affected by their reaction to me? My parents (and others) would always try to change my feelings...

Because there is fear around people getting impatient/irritated, always trying to correct me...

    I recommend writing down what you're thinking about, because that helps you organize your thoughts (which helps get past your traumas). You can burn the paper, easily... nobody else has to read it. You have to find a way to get the poison _out_ of you, and I think that's done most easily by writing it down, or some people might be able to do it by talking (either to buddies, or however works for you).
