"Trauma survivors sometimes feel that the world itself has altered; in severe cases...they feel that “the very structure of their Being-in-the-world [has] turned against them and [been] used to exploit their fundamental relationality”" (Ataria and Horovitz 2020) #CPTSD thoughts

Freud on negative therapeutic reactions: "Every partial solution that ought to result...in an improvement...produces in them...an exacerbation of their illness". Hey Sigmund, I'm one of 'them'. But, it's not an 'illness'. And, I'm not looking for solutions - partial or other.

The discourse and debate around intersections between CPTSD, BPD and PTSD tend to overlook this other possible 'origin story'. And, the lived experience aftermath for adult survivors of #csa. Was van der Kolk onto something? (Thanks to Anna for this reminder)

For healing and growth...or, a decline back into the dark? Still unsure why I'm drawn to such movies. #CPTSD still hurts. #Addiction still torments. theguardian.com/books/2024/sep…

"mere speech coupled with the desire to recover is not guaranteed to affect the kind of profound change at the level of the unconscious required to undo the fantasmatic introjection of guilt and shame common to survivors of sexual abuse" (Jenny Logan 2022) #Healing #CPTSD #csa

Oh...for some, work can exacerbate rather than...the more-positive-other. People living with #CPTSD , the #workplace and #organisations (of any Sector) aren't easy companions.

This is more profound than might at first seem. 'Disease mod' should be the aim/dream. For people living with the impacts of childhood dev'l/complex trauma...surely the offer of mere 'symptom management ' is just a legitimised (!) version of what we've always done. #CPTSD

To mark our resistance to what we believe is a misallocation of funds and attention on World Mental Health Day, we have chosen to spotlight areas of work that aim to genuinely support those living in the silences between annual awareness days. nsun.org.uk/when-world-men…

A clear case of epistemic injustice? When adults - professionals and others - frame a situation believing they are doing the 'right thing'. Reinforcing and compounding the toxic impact of silence on a victim of #csa theguardian.com/society/2024/o…
