CPTSD
(thelemmy.club)
I don't know if this should be in neurodiverse or another place so I apologize, regardless I'm only posting since I just want to get it off my chest and this is the only place I can talk about it at this time.
But fuck, it sucks to have to live with CPTSD. I can last days where I'm mostly (relative to, of course) normal and almost forget about it, but then it wrecks and hits me like a freight train. I havent been able to sleep almost at all for the past week due to not being able to stop thinking about shit in the past, and a whole slew of other effects that comes with it, but the sllep one is the most annoying one for me right now.
Have a cute picture though 
Sorry you’re going through that. I was debilitated by CPTSD for a large part of my life until I found the right therapist who helped me reducing some of the pain I felt by talking through it and finding its origins, and accepting the pain that might never go away. CPTSD is a very heavy burden to carry every day and I hope you find some way to live with it as well, at least to an extent that is doesn’t regularly take you out for multiple days/weeks.
As an aside, when I saw the cat and read CPTSD, in my head I read it as Cat PTSD which is sad because I don’t want cats to suffer from PTSD but it also calms me to know that cats who suffer from (C)PTSD can also recover somewhat by entering a loving home with very patient humans.
Aww i never knew that, that's so cute 🥹 Thank you for telling me. And I'm glad you've learned to live with your CPTSD
