This is not directed at you specifically, but I am close to someone with CPTSD and they have found Internal Family Systems therapy to be very helpful. Just sharing a keyword in case folks are looking.
- simonswords82 4y agoThank you, you're the second person to mention that and it's spurring me on to take a closer look.
- germinalphrase 4y agoOf course. No problem. If I'm completely honest - some of the ideas came across a touch 'woo woo' at first (which, is probably a "part" as they say), but I believe the core concepts are very useful. I don't have CPTSD, am I still happier for recognizing some particular patterns in my thinking/acting/motivations. Good luck!
- q7xvh97o2pDhNrh 4y agoIf you'll allow me to be the third, I can strongly recommend the specific IFS book "You Are the One You've Been Waiting For." It's a short read, and it's heavy on case studies and examples -- which, at least in my experience, are more useful than any sort of prescriptive self-help.
