I guess that's one way to put it. I mean, living with my sister for 6 months was a complete disaster, but so were 5 solid years of repeated abuse that I got as a kid. I have nightmares, flashbacks, etc from the abuse. I had a fight with my sister several weeks ago that she already has forgotten about but that sent me into a complete mental health death spiral that I'm still not out of.
So yes. One traumatic experience, one set of stuff to go with it? Or because you have PTSD from one thing, do you just have it permanently, so no matter what else comes up, you get thrown into it?
