It seems to me from the symptom list above that people who have C-PTSD have had to learn to cope with prolonged trauma so they develop a different set of symptoms, although i don't think that the symptoms for C-PTSD are inertly distinct from the PTSD set. I'm certain that I have at least two friends with C-PTSD, and seems to me that they share a lot the same issues with me, but also have thing that I don't have like trouble remembering, or becoming extremely angry when triggered.

Has your T discussed a treatment plan with you? Are you going to work on they symptoms or are you focusing on the trauma?
Not, no treatment plan discussed with me, yet. I'm not sure what the options are. I am still processing the diagnoses....dealing with what it all means... Thank you for asking.

I'll share more as soon as I know.
