Complex PTSD

There’s a weariness that settles deep into the bones of someone with Complex PTSD — not just from a single traumatic event, but from the slow, repeated erosion of safety and belonging. Unlike shock trauma that strikes like a lightning bolt, Complex PTSD comes from the long ache of being unseen, unheard, and unsafe over time. It’s the trauma of what didn’t happen — the comfort never offered, the truth never spoken, the protection never given.
