I never was officially diagnosed with PTSD and never thought it applied to me, but my former DBT leader thought that maybe I had complex PTSD. My T thinks I suffered from trauma, maybe birth trauma, but I don't know enough about PTSD to know what the criteria for that diagnosis are.

Maybe it's my BPD, but I did and still do get triggered on this forum. It was much worse when it seemed like everyone was attacking me in almost every thread I started, and I still don't understand why exactly. I get triggered when I feel misunderstood or ignored, or sometimes when I don't understand someone else. It seemed like a lot of people were very harsh with me, and I took it all too personally. I seem to be in a better place now, and can take care of myself better. I don't create so much controversy and/or people who don't like me stay away from my threads.
