Why Your C-PTSD Isn't Getting Better

Why Your C-PTSD Isn't Getting Better

Topics covered: sense of self, childhood trauma, DSO, CPTSD, PTSD, relationship problems, emotional triggers, psychology, assessment, measurable goals, journal prompts, childhood trauma, trauma response, attachment.

In this video I go over Disturbances in Self-Organization, a diagnostic criteria set that separates PTSD from C-PTSD. We can fine tune our healing efforts if we know which of the three DSO ideas affects our functioning the most.

The video also discussed a tool we are developing to measure C-PTSD progress and give resources such as what therapy modalities might be the most useful for the category that you score the highest in.

If you're curious about the assessment, watch the Was I Abused Video that was the questionnaire that became empirically validated in the journal publication - links below.
