Thank you for this. I wish more people would write about it...maybe I should as well. I was finally diagnosed with PTSD at age 38. But when I filed for divorce at 44 and subsequently went through a hellish three year divorce, it turned into CPTSD. There has been no recovering since. I'm working on things with naturopaths, therapists, doctors and more...but there seems to be a real difficulty getting my body to believe its safe, EVER! There has been and continues to be a sense of mourning and loss as the somatic responses to triggers increase to a point of near-disability. I wish there was some recourse. I wish there was some justice. But there isn't. We pay for the sins of others in our bodies. It's that simple.
