Something I have stuck in my head and frustrates me, was from years ago news media talking about PTSD in regards to civilians. The conversation felt very dismissive as if it was not possible to suffer from PTSD unless they fought in a war.
recently I was diagnosed with CPTSD due to a horrific home life growing up. Anyway all this has compounded to were I feel like an outsider.
I know cptsd is somewhat common and I’m wondering if anyone remembers this narrative in the news, and if anyone with PTSD/CPTSD has felt similarly?
Not really. I didn’t consume that much news to begin with.
r/[email protected] and their recommended books really opened my eyes.
I didn’t really get the official diagnosis and now I can’t be bothered to get one.
I was on r/cptsd for awhile, I found the discord to be very useful
