Yes, the feeling of drowning bc there's so much of it, that's familiar. It will get better as you figure things out over time, I think.

I think I have one general tip for you. Anything from the situation or bunch of situations that caused you the trauma, will be capable of acting like a trigger (or also just an emotional flashback if you have cPTSD) later. And I think unravelling all the traumatic situations and reworking them is the real solution to it eventually. That is my understanding. Maybe it'll help with the categorising to track triggers more easily.

(That is the one way I've tried to do it but since for me it involves years of stuff, it's still too complex to categorise and track it all)
Thanks Alive, this is curious, I will give it a try.
