Welcome to the community @19matt88 It's great to have you here, and it's fantastic to hear that you'd like to help other members through sharing your experiences. We have plenty of other members who live with PTSD, including CPTSD, so you're more than welcome to connect with other members. 

I've moved your post into our category for discussions relating to mental health, and renamed it slightly, so that it's easier for other members to find. 

Are you receiving enough support for your CPTSD at the moment? I'm sure getting a slightly new diagnosis must be difficult, but hopefully it'll help you to make sense of how you've been feeling.

Yes I am getting help from a number of organisations. Yes it has been very rough road to getting where I am it is still affecting me and my life in many ways I would just love to share my story and maybe help others in the process
