CPTSD vs PTSD: What You Need to Know for Recovery

In this week’s main episode of CPTSD: Let’s Make Sense of This Sh*t, we’re breaking down the critical differences between Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (CPTSD) and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).

While they may sound similar, understanding how CPTSD is distinct from PTSD is key to finding the right path for your healing journey. We’ll dive into the unique ways CPTSD can manifest, including the long-term effects of sustained trauma, and how the symptoms and triggers differ from those typically associated with PTSD.

You’ll learn about common CPTSD triggers and the importance of recognizing these signs to better manage your mental health. 

We’ll also touch on the benefits of practicing grounding techniques regularly, and how they can help you navigate the daily challenges of CPTSD. To help you get started, we’ll share some great apps and tools designed to make grounding exercises easy to incorporate into your routine.

Don’t miss this in-depth discussion that will give you a clearer understanding of CPTSD and how to take control of your recovery.

And don’t forget to tune in for Friday’s healing episode, where we’ll guide you through Breathing Exercises for Immediate Calm.
