@psychedforsanitypodcast: PTSD vs. C-PTSD flashbacks: one is a vivid memory replay, the other is pure emotion without recall. Understanding the difference is key.

It’s almost out of body for me like I’m watching myself. Similarly to The Truman Show where everyone around him thinks he’s acting odd but he KNOWS everything that’s happening to him is actually wrong. It FEELS like you’re stuck in that timeline.

That part of forming the memory before language was developed.

Life of Spice :
spent 15 years being yelled at directly and indirectly by my stepdad. most of the time it had nothing to do with me but I still had to suffer through it even at 3am sometimes. I was in my office and a guy was yelling on the phone outside my door. had nothing to do with me. I logically knew that. my adult brain is telling me im ok. 15 years of conditioning makes me freeze and focus on everything being said and just wait for the yelling to be over so my life can continue.

Britney Weilbacher :
Emotional flashback is a term I’ve not heard of but that makes sense. My body immediately reacts to the perceived threat and my reactions are often more intense than is warranted by the actual situation.

PTSD flashbacks are much more diverse than what she described with the veteran. I appreciate what they are saying and their goal of explaining the differences, but this is an extremely limited view of PTSD flashbacks.

I bought a deodorant that I must have worn when I was back in that relationship and had a full breakdown when I smelled it

Hilda Laura Amaral 海达 :
My flashbacks from cptsd don’t need necessarily a trigger. They can just come while I’m doing the most trivial thing, right away when I wake up or even just watching tv… I get disassociating while having these flashbacks and I don’t feel time passing by. No matter how engaged I am on a task, a random thought just brings me back to those moments a traumatic event happened.

Rae :
I have an ex who used to argue like my dad argued with me, not loud and banging around but coldly and picking apart my words and I would get “irrationally” upset and couldn’t figure out why for months

I can’t wear anything that gets to tight around my neck. And sometimes I forget and then can’t figure out why my body is flipping out. Hate it.

Childhood was GREAT! It’s that 20 year marriage that left me messed up! Divorced is the hardest season of my life so far.

Tristan :
I literally described my PTSD that way with feelings or triggers occurring in random moments in life. My body is holding onto so much crap that’s not mine.

One of the best ways to describe CPTSD flashback and the feelings thank you! Always looking for clear and concise ways to explain this to family and friends

I’ve been feeling these massive emotions without explanation. Now that I’m going through therapy, I’m understanding the C part of my CPTSD, but it’s bringing up nightmares of the traumatic moments that I had blocked. Therapy is working
