What Is Complex PTSD?
Complex post-traumatic stress disorder (C-PTSD) is a severe psychological condition resulting from prolonged, repeated trauma involving harm or abandonment by a regulating principal figure.
Distinct from PTSD
While similar to PTSD, C-PTSD involves additional symptoms like:
- Difficulties with emotional regulation
- Distorted self-perception and sense of meaning
- Interpersonal problems and lack of trust
Typical Causes
C-PTSD often stems from exposure to traumatic events in childhood, such as:
- Abuse (physical, sexual, emotional)
- Neglect
- Domestic violence
But it can also result from other prolonged traumatic experiences like:
- Human trafficking
- Torture
- Repeated violations of emotional/physical integrity
Symptoms of Complex PTSD
Emotional Disturbances
- Intense emotions like anger, depression, shame or fear
- Feeling numb or disconnected from emotions
- Difficulty regulating emotions
Changes in Consciousness
- Amnesia or trouble remembering parts of traumatic events
- Dissociative episodes – feeling detached from reality or one’s self
- Depersonalization or derealization
Changes in Self-Perception
- Negative self-image or self-hatred
- Feeling different or alienated from others
- Lack of meaning or purpose in life
Difficulties with Relationships
- Struggles with intimacy or boundaries in relationships
- Repeated patterns of tumultuous relationships
- Social isolation or withdrawal
Somatic Disturbances
- Chronic pain, headaches, or digestive issues
- Sleep disturbances like insomnia or nightmares
- Easily startled or hypervigilant
The complex symptoms of C-PTSD require specialized, trauma-informed treatment to address the pervasive effects on daily functioning and quality of life. Early intervention is crucial.
