Includes symptoms like flashbacks, avoidance, and hyperarousal
Can interfere with sleep, mood, memory, and relationships
Chronic Trauma
Results from repeated, ongoing exposure to distressing experiences (e.g., domestic violence, long-term illness)
Can lead to heightened anxiety, trust issues, or emotional numbing
May be harder to recognize due to its ongoing nature
Complex PTSD (C-PTSD)
Stemming from prolonged or repeated trauma, often during childhood
Includes all PTSD symptoms plus shame, low self-esteem, and relationship difficulties
Often misdiagnosed or misunderstood as personality disorders
Complex Trauma
Involves multiple, layered traumas—often beginning in childhood
