Story
The causes of Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder range from severe neglect to monstrous abuse. Many survivors grew up in houses that were not homes-in families that were as loveless as orphanages and sometimes as dangerous. If you felt unwanted, unliked, rejected, hated, and/or despised for a lengthy portion of your childhood, trauma may be deeply engrained in your mind, soul, and body. This book is a practical guide to recovering from lingering childhood trauma. It is copiously illustrated with examples of the author's and his clients' journeys of recovering.

CPTSD stands for complex post-traumatic stress disorder. It’s usually characterized by emotional flashes, toxic shame, self-neglect, extreme inner criticism, and social anxiety. Causes are often found in childhood in painful feelings of various types of abuse and neglect. So, the causes are related to nurture rather than nature.

In the early stages of a relationship, people may get feelings of insecurity leading to more anxiety. You can experience worrying thoughts such as, “Does this person really like me?” “How serious is this relationship?” “Will it work out?” Usually, if you love someone deeply, and he/she breaks your heart, chances are, you will avoid being vulnerable. On a certain level, we all fear being hurt, consciously or unconsciously. Ironically, this fear tends to increase when we are getting what we want.

If you’ve already tried one method of treatment for PTSD yet experienced no positive results, there are still multiple other options available for you to test out, so don’t get discouraged. Every person heals uniquely to the next, which means you need to find the method that works solely for you. Keep in mind that treatment doesn’t automatically mean having to go to therapy - plenty of alternative ways to heal exist, allowing you to choose whatever feels most comfortable for you.

Publisher's Summary
Witnessing your loved one suffer hurts. Find out what you can do to support them without putting your relationship at risk...
Post-traumatic stress disorder, also known as PTSD, is an anxiety disorder that can develop after having witnessed or experienced a traumatic event. Contrary to popular belief, this condition doesn’t only affect soldiers, but also people from all backgrounds and of any age.
Did you know that an estimated 8 million adults are affected by PTSD in the US?
And that’s not counting the family and friends who feel the effects of the disorder as well.
Living with someone suffering from PTSD can prove to be extremely stressful and disheartening, as all you wish is to see them happy and acting like their normal selves.
By taking the time to educate yourself and know what to prepare for, you will have everything you need to serve as a vital piece to the recovery puzzle.
In PTSD and Relationships, you will discover:
- How to support and encourage your loved one through their PTSD without putting your own health and happiness at risk
- Why telling your loved one reassuring phrases such as, “Everything is going to be okay”, is actually doing them more harm than good, and what you should say instead that will aid in their recovery
- The most effective PTSD treatments available, and how to figure out which approach would be the best option for assisting your loved one through their recovery
- And much more
No one wants to see their best friend, family member, or spouse struggle through hardship.
Show them you’re the rock in the relationship and that they can always count on you for support and love whenever they need it, no matter the reason.
If you want to discover how you can aid your loved one through their PTSD recovery without jeopardizing your own well-being, then buy this audiobook right now.
