On today's episode of Yours Mentally we talk about Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. This episode is in conversation with Shanaya Boyce who is a Counselling Psychologist.

We begin the episode by asking Shanaya what is Complex post traumatic stress disorder and what are the causes of CPTSD?
We then go on to ask her the difference between PTSD and CPTSD.
We also ask her what are some typical behaviours exhibited by people suffering from PTSD?
Leading up to her answer in the above mentioned question we ask her to elaborate on the concept of dissociation and why traumatic events lead to it?
A common symptom of PTSD is lack of trust or difficulty with relationships. We ask Shanaya why do individuals have these issues?
Up till now on the episode we learnt about CPTSD, we now ask Shanaya what mental health illnesses can CPSTD lead to?
Lastly, we ask Shanaya how can CPTSD treated and what can a lay person do to help a close one suffering from CPTSD?
