What I see as problematic is that trying to work through it on one's own is not good because it is important to have someone knowledgeable to validate you the way you need to be validated and supported. I was trying on my own for a while and had "no" support and only got worse. Now that I have had time with a good T, I realize the significance of having someone who understands PTSD be there to help with the symptoms and listen and guide someone through their healing.

With complex PTSD, typically the person had traumatic challenges in their childhood and there was no one there to help them. So, when you work through all that, it is important this time to have that happen for you. I think that is important to finally healing, to have others to validate you the way you deserve.
