  • サマリー

  • C-PTSD and PTSD are fascinating areas of psychology where a person has trauma from a traumatic experience in their past with specific diagnostic criteria from either the DSM-V or the ICD-11. C-PTSD and Me Podcast utilizes the ICD-11 for our discussion purposes. If you feel as though you meet the criteria for either of these conditions, we cannot provide advice or insight regarding specific experiences beyond that of the diagnosed host and her personal anecdotes. However, we strongly recommend finding mental health resources in your local area or contact the crisis resources included in the footer notes of each episode of the show.

    Not often discussed in general society are those that suffer from C-PTSD and PTSD who have learned to survive so well that from the outside looking in, all is fine. All the while, the successful doctor, lawyer, electrician, stay-at-home-mom, etc., suffers in a silence that has continued for far too long in our country.

    Join Andrea as she laughs, cries, and shares with you while moving forward on her C-PTSD healing journey. The episodes will feature sensitive topics and listener discretion is advised. Every episode that contains triggers will try to include a non-exhaustive list of topics discussed.

    As a former practicing attorney, Andrea cannot offer legal advice or counseling, nor should anything on the podcast be considered legal advice or counseling. Andrea’s prior work experience allows a unique insight into C-PTSD and its effect on the professional world. Just used as a speaking tool. Andrea is also not an expert in psychology and is only speaking to the tools and therapies she has tried and her personal experience with them. NOTHING in this show should be considered medical advice. If you are in crisis, dial or text 988 for the National Suicide Prevention hotline, and/or dial 911 for an ambulance if in the US, or, globally, go to your local emergency room.
