What is Complex PTSD?

Complex PTSD (CPTSD) can happen to people who have experienced more than one traumatic event.

The difference between CPTSD and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is the number of times a person has gone through trauma. CPTSD causes a person to have difficult and painful emotional and behavioral symptoms and requires attending a licensed treatment program to help them overcome their disorder.

Approximately 4% of adults have had CPTSD each year. When a person has an early life traumatic experience that goes untreated, they are almost twice as likely to end up with depression at age 21.

What Causes Complex PTSD?

Complex PTSD can result after experiencing one or more of the following types of traumatic events:

Sexual assault
Physical assault
Childhood molestation
Bullying
Community unrest, such as riots or neighborhood violence
Childhood neglect
Acts of nature, such as hurricanes, fires, flooding, and more
Long-term illness or serious accident

When is it Time to Seek Treatment for CPTSD?

CPTSD takes over a person’s life, but they can become accustomed to their pain and fear and do not understand that they need professional treatment. If a person’s overall quality of life has become compromised because of untreated CPTSD, it’s time to seek treatment. This includes feeling overwhelmed, lost, and fearful.

The right treatment program helps people address and minimize their symptoms so they can learn to feel calm and live without fear again.

How is CPTSD Treated?

Treatment for CPTSD works best when the person has access to multiple types of therapies.

Frequently Asked Questions About CPTSD

Is Complex PTSD a Disability?

Complex PTSD can be classified as a disability, but it is also a curable mental health disorder.

How to Support a Loved One Who May Be Suffering From CPTSD

Tell them you are a safe person to speak to about how they feel. Offer to help them look for treatment and drive them to appointments, if possible. Tell them there is always hope to turn their lives around and enjoy better mental health.

What is The Best Medication for CPTSD?

Not everyone who has CPTSD requires medication. A discussion will be held with a clinician to determine if a medication is required, which may be used to treat depression, anxiety, and other symptoms.

Is CPTSD Treatment Effective?

People who do not seek treatment will continue to suffer and typically have increased symptoms, such as depression, anxiety, and suicidal ideation. The sooner they get professional help, the less they will suffer needlessly.
