Overview
Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder describes multiple and/or prolonged exposure to traumatic events. This is my personal story and describes my life where most of my traumas are based on violence.
The traumas kens describes were he experienced first-hand over a period of fifty years. Fifty years of pain and inability to speak resulted in mental breakdown.
Seeking help was a steep mountain to climb because I didn't know what would be involved. Ken was frightened and disorientated and couldn't find words to describe what was going on in my mind. I thought I was the only person with the mental health problems I was experiencing and at times felt like a fraud; I was wrong.
The psychological therapy was supported by the clinical psychology department at Queens University and delivered by the Regional Trauma Network. The therapy was tough but helped me out of total darkness to allow me to continue living. I still require support and this is ongoing. If things get hard, I now know where to go for help.
We don't choose to live with trauma and adversity but we can choose to seek help.
