    I know what you mean. I was repeatedly physically beaten when I younger and this developed into depression in my teens. My mum passed away at that caused me to develop PTSD. I couldn't talk about it. Woke my partner and son up every night screaming and crying in my sleep. When anyone asked me what was up I'd to anything to avoid talking about my mum. I'd purposely avoid looking at pics of her etc. Its always good to get and talk about things. If you want to talk feel free to message me. I'll give you email if you want. Hope you're ok.

    There’s a difference between PTSD and C-PTSD (complex PTSD). C-PTSD is the result of years of trauma, often abuse. Our nervous systems are constantly on high alert in fight-flight-freeze. We often respond to minor things like it’s “the big one”. I was abused by a Narcissistic Borderline mother (and Histrionic Narcissist sister) for 43 years. There is hope for people like me with severe childhood trauma. There’s a new type of therapy that can actually help us heal. It’s called Developmental Needs Meeting Strategy, or DNMS. It was created by a woman named Shirley Jean Schmidt and there’s a great video on KZread that explains it.

    CARA AS MUCH AS I RESONATE WITH YOUR COMMENT AS A CPTSD SURVIVOR I CAN SAY WEED IS THE ONLY RESOLUTION ANYONE WILL HAVE WITH THIS DISORDER. WEED WORKED WONDERS FOR ME. POTENT WEED IS BEST! THE MORE POTENT THE BETTER! Here is the quote you need to learn from that site that explains in one paragraph the solution to what youve suffered through all your life. "“Researchers found that people with PTSD had lower levels of anandamide, an endogenous cannabinoid compound, compared to those who did not show signs of PTSD,” Lee wrote, “Innate to all mammals, anandamide (our inner cannabis, so to speak) triggers the same receptors that are activated by THC and other components of the marijuana plant.” In other words, one pillar of PTSD is an endocannabinoid deficiency: the body stops producing enough endocannabinoids to fill receptor sites, and this is where the cannabinoids found in marijuana play a therapeutic role. By replenishing these missing endocannabinoids with those found in cannabis, researchers think marijuana pharmaceuticals might bring PTSD patients relief from their memories." www.leafly.com/news/health/cannabis-and-post-traumatic-stress-disorder-ptsd

    I have c-ptsd from being verbally and sexually abused by my own dad. It went on for about 6 years. I'm 12 right now, and in the beginning of this school year I didn't feel normal. At the school dances they would play loud music and people would scream. That type of stuff triggered my ptsd, and i would always cry at the formals. People would always get annoyed from me crying so much that it made me feel like I was alone in the world. Now I'm better though. I finally got the voice to actually be open about it. I started talking to my best friends and a counselor. I'm just telling y'all, some years/days/hours are better then others. In 5th grade I would break out in tears everyday. Now, I can actually talk about the things that happened to me without crying. :') thanks for reading.

Recently I wanted to cry bc my mom was driving on the highway. in my head I thought she was gonna crash into another car. Like I already see it happening, basically a vision. anytime someone drives or I drive I develop a feeling of cringe, like stiffness in muscles. I recently just noticed this. and I do not drive on the highway anymore. the accident wasn't on a highway, but I develop a feeling of anxiety of accidently go on the highway. I don't have night terrors though.

    ...but she could have C-PTSD (Complex PTSD). As someone else mentioned in the comments, it occurs after dealing with years of recurring, "smaller" traumas, such as seeing a caregiver throw things and lash out constantly throughout childhood. Depending on Samantha's age, she could try speaking with a school counselor so that arrangements can be made to get proper treatment. If she is older, she needs to try asking the primary care doctor for a referral to a trained psychiatrist or therapist.

    Drs are not psychologists. Many don't understand these issues. And I have grown up in a similar household, and 50 years later, I can assure you that it is traumatising. Don't give up looking for help. Wanting attention is often because we need the right kind of attention. Take care and don't loose hope. Life is a long journey.

    PTSD is a mysterious thing. Poem titled, “My place has changed." My place has changed, From the things once seen. To where I do not know. Only I can say ‘I can return.’ Only I can find that way To my source in life, With the time I have left I must overcome. It’s I who must come back.

    I was quite surprised that I was diagnosed with PTSD. I thought it was something only vets experienced. Interesting that they discuss how it can present itself years after the trauma. I'm 55 and at the age of 14 my father was killed in a plane crash. It was 6 months before the plane was found and his body was recovered. Fast forward to about 2 years ago. I found out my husband was meeting another woman behind back (ironically, this woman is a pain management Dr., lol). I was told that this event, percieved as loss, brought up the trauma of loosing my dad. I was hospitalized after a suicide attempt. I was having the worst nightmares. I was seeing horrid flashes of my husband and this womans face in my dreams among other horrible things. I had a treatment called EMDR which eased the PTSD a lot. Didn't take the problem away but made life way more manageable and eased the symptoms to a great degree.

    You left out CPTSD Its even worse due to it being triggered by not one or two , but multiple complex events. And you have 'Absolutely NO control' when the symptoms happens, and try to avoid situations that can trigger it. I've had it from before I was adopted caused by biological parents abuse, foster care abuse, and to make it worse similar abuse by bullies in elementary, middle and high school. I was misdiagnosed only last week we found the true answer as CPTSD Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Of course unless your from military, and or wealthy, it is very, very difficult to get assistance with the$$$$$$ of treatment, and if its recommended a CPTSD/PTSD therapy dog to help that is out of reach, due to how expensive they deliberately make it to own one to assist yes I'm talking $$$$$$$ average $15,000 for a trained CPTSD/PTSD dog that could help make a difference of the world for a none-wealthy, none-military person suffering with CPTSD/PTSD, but is due to cost out of reach.
