One big flaw I see with the diagnosis is that it is all based on physical damage, like you have to fear for your life or similar. I think people can actually get PTSD from an excess of mental abuse, like can happen in cults and similar where "only" their souls and minds are threatened...

A guess is that you don't have as many symptoms according to DSM to give you a 100 % diagnosis, but it is still clear you have PTSD.

The new DSM is suggested to ease up on Criterion C, which is avoidance, the current DSM needs a lot of avoidance for a diagnosis where the new one will be less strict.
