Then I'd have to go out into places/do things that trigger the PTSD. Such as, eating something that reminds me of the trauma, or listening to a song that played on the radio during the trauma or things like that.
So there's a lot of homework involved and it sounds really hard.
When my T was explaining this she said I looked "petrified"

Well yeah, I would be petrified also. My question is with CPTSD there are so many traumas, and known and unknown triggers, how do they control more than one trauma being dealt with? Thanks for this information, something to think about. If there were only one trauma to deal with this may be something to work with. Ya know?
