This is a curiosity question.

each mental health agency in the USA keeps their own statistical data on how many clients they are treating, what mental disorders are being treated and percentages. therefore to find out that information you will need to contact your own mental health agencies. they can give you their statistics for mental health agencies in your area.
what I can tell you is that in 2013 the USA changed over to a new standard of diagnostics. PTSD now does include a specifier for dissociation in the areas of depersonalization derealization.
what that means is any time a treatment provider diagnosis's their clients with PTSD they now must state whether that person has depersonalization derealization symptoms.
As for CPTSD... america no longer has a mental disorder called Complex PTSD. the trauma and related mental disorders for america are now called....
reactive attachment disorder
Disinhibited Social Engagement Disorder
Post Traumatic Stress Disorder
Acute Stress Disorder
Adjustment Disorders
Other Specified Trauma and stressor related disorder
Unspecified Trauma and stressor related disorder
Those located in the USA who have a past diagnosis of CPTSD can talk with their treatment providers for finding out how their symptoms transfer over to the new diagnostic labeling.
outside of the USA they may still use the diagnostic Labeling of CPTSD.
my point if you are looking for american demographics./statistics you wont find any on CPTSD because that label no longer exists since 2013 here.
