The numb would be more the freeze and the restlessness is part of the flight because it is activating you to run or escape. I did more freezing since I couldn't escape if I wanted to, so the numbness makes sense for me since I have that most of the time.

The PTSD was diagnosed first 3 months ago and I understood it and finally accepted it. C PTSD came about a couple weeks ago and the DID last week. I didn't even know about DID or that it existed nor did my T say anything about it. I took a lot of her time last week trying to talk about some things that finally made the puzzle complete (so to speak) and along came with it was DID, hard to explain without details that I can't even tell myself still but yes, to answer your question, very sure. It makes sense to me but it's hard to accept. My legs get extremely painful and then non-feeling. Not sure why. I'm still trying to wrap my brain around all of this. It's really hard and I'm having a difficult time with it all.
