does anyone else ever feel like their trauma isn’t bad enough to warrant CPTSD?
it’s taken me years to realise that my source of trauma was dealing with my older brothers addiction issues throughout my childhood, but I genuinely feel like I’m overreacting to everything. I can speak to friends/family/therapists about it and they do validate me and say it was traumatic to experience at such a young age, but idk I often find myself thinking it probably wasn’t actually that bad. like there’s so many others out there that have gone through much much worse stuff, I feel like I’m being dramatic.
