Description

Introduction

PTSD is generally related to a single traumatic event, while complex PTSD is related to a series of events, or one prolonged event. A doctor may diagnose complex PTSD if a person has experienced prolonged or repeated trauma over a period of months or years.

Traumas connected to childhood neglect or abandonment seem to be central to the the development of onset c-PTSD. Since complex PTSD is a relatively recent concept, healthcare professionals may instead diagnose another condition due to its variable and complex nature. They may be likely to diagnose borderline personality disorder (BPD). Studies have found a substantial overlap between complex PTSD and BPD.

Complex PTSD – A doctor may diagnose complex PTSD if you experienced multiple traumatic events at an early age and lasted for a long time: Symptoms of c-PTSD may include the following:

traumatic flashbacks and re-enactment (feeling like the trauma is happening right now)
intrusive thoughts or images
nightmares
intense distress at real or symbolic reminders of the trauma
physical sensations such as pain, sweating, nausea, dizziness or trembling
feeling as if you are permanently defective or worthless
feeling like nobody can understand what happened to you
Heightened startle reaction
avoiding friendships and relationships, or finding them very difficult
difficulty controlling your emotions
feeling very hostile or suspiscious towards the world
regular suicidal feelings.
panicking when reminded of the trauma
disturbed sleep or a lack of sleep
irritability or aggressive behaviour
finding it hard to concentrate – including on simple or everyday tasks
being jumpy or easily startled
self-destructive behaviour or recklessness
other symptoms of anxiety
feeling like you have to keep busy
avoiding anything that reminds you of the trauma
being unable to remember details of what happened
feeling emotionally numb or cut off from your feelings
feeling physically numb or detached from your body
being unable to express affection
using alcohol or drugs to avoid memories
Inability to recall key features of the trauma
Overly negative thoughts and assumptions about oneself or the world

What I have learnt from this course is this; I work intuitively with clients blending psychology into my modalities as you know, this course showed me that I am on the right track and can put the science behind it in a more understandable format. Thank you once again, Wale, very enjoyable. Kind regards,” Paula, S.

“Thank you for this online course. I really enjoyed learning from your experiences and reflecting on how I can help some of the clients I am working with.
