I personally find CPTSD to be very problematic, however it has not impacted my ability to work. Has it impacted how well I've done at work? Most likely, without it I probably would be in a totally different position, or even different line of work and probably doing much better. But it hasn't prevented me from working and doing a great job at my level.
I don't think anyone here is trying to negate anyone's opinion or circumstances. It really just boils down to everyone being unique and being impacted differently by CPTSD or PTSD.
