complex PTSD (cPTSD)

is a form of PTSD resulting from prolonged, repeated trauma, often occurring in childhood or in situations where escape is difficult, such as abusive relationships. C-PTSD includes the core symptoms of PTSD (flashbacks, nightmares, severe anxiety) but also involves additional symptoms like emotional dysregulation, negative self-perception, difficulty in relationships, and a pervasive sense of hopelessness or despair. It can lead to significant challenges in daily functioning and relationships.
