How Complex Trauma Affects Your Relationship with Your Body

I'm thinking of using a med to treat C-PTSD.

I have daily traumatic flashbacks.

How do I get rid of this?

  • I also have CPTSD. One of the most helpful things I read about it, was a book called The Body Keeps The Score, by Bessel van der Kolk. Start there.

    He is part of the Trauma Research Foundation, which is also an excellent resource..

    • Gotcha. I'll check that book out. I was recommended it by a good comrade once in Virginia.

      • It's really, really good. Helped me a lot, and taught me to be kinder to myself.

        • I know, but I just need some sort of anti-trauma pill that can help treat trauma because I'm having daily traumatic flashbacks.

          • Anti trauma pills don't really exist, but there are meds that can help manage it. There's nothing that makes it go away unfortunately.

            • that's hwat I mean

              • See a doctor ASAP, and the book will help you alongside some medication.

                • I already take medication, but thank you.

                  I will have to take anti-trauma medication though, which I'm not taking.
