What Is Complex PTSD?

Complex post-traumatic stress disorder, or c-PTSD, is a mental health condition that occurs after prolonged exposure to a traumatic event or traumatic environment. Contrary to PTSD, c-PTSD typically involves repeated exposures to traumatic experiences. Some common sources of complex PTSD include:

  • Childhood physical, sexual, or emotional abuse
  • Neglect
  • Domestic violence, or being a witness to or being in a household with a domestically abusive relationship
  • Bullying
  • Harassment
  • Living in neighborhoods where violence is common, crime is common, or in active warzones
  • Childhoods filled with caregivers who use substances or are emotionally unavailable
Trauma takes many forms, but all affect your emotional, physical, and mental well-being. Complex PTSD treatment centers and a dedicated treatment plan are often necessary to address the lasting effects of c-PTSD, both in exploring these traumatic experiences and their impact on daily life.

Signs of Complex PTSD

Complex PTSD and PTSD can share many symptoms. However, the healing process can be quite different. Noticing signs of trauma can be a reason to contact a professional trauma treatment center to learn more about your healing options. Some common signs and symptoms of c-PTSD include:

Flashbacks or intrusive thoughts
Hypervigilance or hyperarousal
Difficulty sleeping, or prevalent nightmares
Use of substances like drugs or alcohol as coping mechanisms
Self-isolating behavior, especially if avoiding certain places or people
Difficulty managing emotional responses
Compromised feelings of self-worth, along with guilt, shame, and low self-esteem
Difficulty trusting others, or fear of trust and intimacy
Expecting the worst or catastrophizing, or feeling unsafe or uncertain, even in healthy relationships or supportive environments

PTSD can also give birth to new mental health disorders like anxiety, depression, and much more. Overcoming traumatic experiences often demands professional support, with dedicated trauma recovery that treats the whole person, not just symptoms. Exploring sources of trauma, their impact on substance use and addiction, as well as mental health conditions, beliefs, and more, is all necessary. Working with peers, professionals, and supportive family members back home is part of the treatment process, combining evidence-based care and holistic treatment to explore change and healing from these difficult past experiences.

Addressing Substance Use Disorder (SUD) Along With c-PTSD

For many, addictive substances like drugs and alcohol can be closely tied to traumatic experiences, with these substances used to push down difficult feelings, memories, or even to placate intrusive thoughts and difficult feelings. However, using drugs or alcohol as a coping mechanism for the symptoms and effects of trauma can have many destructive consequences. Addressing trauma and addiction in tandem through dedicated dual diagnosis programs can help you explore change, addressing not just surface-level symptoms of each, but delve deeper into their connection and the core root of addiction.
