my own opinion is that many locations call and define complex PTSD in many different ways.
example here in america we do not have the diagnostic ..........name....... called CPTSD. here its more individualized where one persons CPTSD symptoms are called one thing and another person who may have the same CPTSD symptoms its called something different. it all depends on each persons own history, experiences, test scores, problem areas, and other symptoms that people do not usually know about because its something non professionals know about the disorder.
just because here in america we have different names for what other places and people call CPTSD doesnt mean we dont have it.
I think of it like a cold. some places call a cold upper respiratory disease, others call it a cold and still others call it by the technical medical terms nasopharyngitis, rhinopharyngitis, acute coryza ..... CPTSD has many names and problems associated with it.
Im guessing who ever wrote that article may have statistics and other information that some may not have or they are going according to what CPTSD is in the writers own location.
my point its not up to me to agree or disagree with that. I just go according to my own treatment provider and what my own symptoms and problems are because of my CPTSD (or as my treatment provider calls it Acute Stress Disorder.)
