Thanks Trace for sharing. Yeah its basically what the " Coping with Trauma related dissociation" book is talking about at the beginning.

The book also says that " trauma-related disorders have extensive overlap in symptoms, so its possible for a person to fit several diagnostic categories. This does not mean more is wrong with you; rather, it speaks to the fact that descriptions of trauma-related disorders are not very precise and have a lot of overlap"

The book suggests that CPTSD lies between DID and PTSD, which makes sense to me.

Anyway, gonna finish reading the book and maybe post questions along the way so we can all learn and understand better.
