@Theholisticpsyc A lot of these things can look random from the outside. But sometimes they make more sense when you ask what the person had to learn to survive. That doesn’t mean every reaction is healthy. It just means there’s usually a reason it got there.

5. They stay in dysfunctional relationships: they stay in situations that are harmful or dysfunctional because it's their familiar and they know what to expect. Even if they want to get out, they often get pulled back in.

6. They have trouble keeping jobs or staying consistent: people with CTPSD go into freeze states (dorsal vagal shutdown) where their body is physically paralyzed by emotional overwhelm. They believe they're lazy, but it's actually their body in threat mode.

Loving someone with CPTSD means being compassionate, patient, but also holding them accountable.
You can heal from CPTSD. You can learn to respond in new ways, to protect your energy, and to (safely) release stored trauma from the body.

3. They can't sit still: a physical symptom of CPTSD is the inability to sit still and relax into the moment. A deregulated nervous system creates pacing, nail biting, rocking, or feet tapping in an attempt to release sympathetic energy.

4. They dissociate: when you're taking to them you can tell they're miles away. Their eyes are sometimes glazed over and their voice becomes monotone. Even if they're responding, you can feel they're disconnected from their body.
(because they are.)

CPTSD develops from ongoing repeated traumatic events, rather than a single event.
This can be from: childhood neglect, witnessing emotional abuse, experiencing bullying, or anything else that kept you helpless and isolated.

Signs Someone Has CTPSD:
1. They can't emotionally regulate: they go through highs and lows or cycle through moods very quickly. They can't bounce back after being upset and cope through lashing out or shutting down.

2. They have trust issues: even when there is no reason to not trust someone, they struggle. They constantly look for signs they're being abandoned, lied to, or hurt in some way.

@Theholisticpsyc I think the real damage happens when a child learns that “respect” means making yourself smaller. Don’t disagree. Don’t upset Dad. Don’t ask for too much. Don’t become too different. Eventually the child may look obedient on the outside while learning to hide hug

His continued focus on respectful children actually creates anxious adults with low self-worth who are more prone to coping by using substances.
It creates adults who hide their pain and don't ask for help.

When you start to articulate your own thoughts and opinions, he views it as a personal betrayal rather than a positive sign you're developing independence as a person.

Sometimes his children can become harsh reminders of what he was not. Their talents, their ability to attract partners, their academic success, or their popularity trigger the younger insecure parts of him that always felt like an outsider.

Because he doesn't feel internally stable, he does the only thing that gives him relief: he controls the external environment (his home) through his temper.

Subconsciously, they've learned: if my family fears me, they're less likely to do things that upset me.
This is a way to control what topics are brought up, who gets to have an opinion, how money is spent, and how people interact with him.

Their thoughts are not about how they can contribute emotionally, connect with their families and help to make everyone feel safe and resilient.
Their thoughts are: my home is the one place that should not have to put in effort.

Many emotionally immature fathers can only feel one emotion: anger.
They fear being vulnerable and feeling sadness or jealousy. Anger gives them a brief feeling of being important, respected, and in charge.

Because they lack communication skills, they're not able to directly express how they feel or what they need.
They develop an authoritative personality type. This enables them to avoid healthy communication.
Instead they make harsh demands.
