Buy now to get the insights from Pete Walker's Complex PTSD.

Sample Insights:

1) Pete Walker suffers from Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, or CPTSD. CPTSD is not a genetic disease, but it is caused by your environment. The most common cause of CPTSD is an abusive household, and this affects 1 in 3 girls and 1 in 5 boys.

2) Emotional flashbacks are the most common side effect for patients who struggle with CPTSD. Unlike PTSD, there are no visual components to these flashbacks, but rather emotional ones. Men and women will regress to the feeling-states they had as an abused child, resulting in bouts of anxiety, depression, fear, and alienation.
