This may be tik tok psychology but AFAIK the whole point cPTSD exists as a distinct diagnosis in the first place is that it is not caused by that one big life destroying event, but by constant microtrauma exposure.
And it is extremely common to downplay that kind of trauma as "not really that bad, all things considered". That's so typical to say that my friend group has a "don't compare trauma" rule. Yes, somebody will always have had it worse, there's people being trafficked or abused as child soldiers or whatnot. That does not mean you have no right to be in pain just because your childhood environment was damaging in more subtle ways. Your stepmom sounds genuinely abusive, you do not have to apologize for being traumatized by her. You being a sensitive child doesn't excuse that, either, adults should notice when a child is sensitive and treat them accordingly instead of doing shit like giving them the cold shoulder treatment for a whole week, jfc. I'm sorry you were put through this. Lots of love and hugs to you comrade
Was taking about all this with my therapist this evening and realized it probably was probably a bigger deal than I thought... yippee
Ty btw
I feel that "it's probably a bigger deal than i thought" thing, i've had that a lot during the last year or so.
