At last count the following disorders and syndromes apply very well to me.
Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (CPTSD)
Intermittant Explosive Disorder (IED)
Child Traumatic Stress Disorder (CTS)
Early Childhood Trauma Disorder (ECT)
Now all of these disorders overlap to one degree or another, or the lingering and unresolved disorders overlap other newly generated disorders. Question, do these disorders have a synergistic or multiplying effect which is greater than the sum of the individual disorders? In other words can these disorders combine to form a humongous perfect storm? Or does the brain have a mechanism or a governor of some type to keep this from happening? Admittedly I'm a mess, but I still seem to be functioning at a reasonably high level. I'm just wondering if one day all heck is going to break lose. Shalom.
