I put the trigger symbol on this thread just in case.

I was wondering what experiences have lead you here? Did something specific cause it, or was it a hotpotch of various things? Was is a singular event or was it a longterm situation? Is it ptsd or 'complex' ptsd, ( I dont think thats an official diagnosis in most places, if anywhere, but it's a very real thing.) Do you know specifically what caused it or do you not know what caused it specifically, you just know that you have had a generally traumatic life which lead to developing post traumatic stress?

Please don't answer this thread if it may put you in a vulnerable position or trigger ptsd symptoms.I'm not sure if this is an insensitive thread...I just don't want to feel so alone, that's all.I guess that's what I am aiming for
