Complex PTSD in 5 Minutes

Complex PTSD is, well, complex. Let's see if we can simplify it a bit, and explain things in just 5 minutes.

As a note, during the video I offered a number of symptoms for both PTSD and CPTSD. Common symptoms for PTSD are derived from the DSM, but as Complex PTSD is not a recognized diagnosis there are no formal symptoms for it offered by the APA. The World Health Organization does recognize it as a diagnosis, and you can find various symptoms for both here: http://traumadissociation.com/complex...

Everyone's experience of something is going to be different, and there are plenty of symptoms I included here that may not describe your experience. You may also experience symptoms I haven't included, or experience some of the Complex PTSD symptoms as a part of conventional PTSD.
