There are things in life that we don’t get over, but we eventually learn to manage the effects of what happened to us. Some of these things were either so traumatic, or so prolonged, or both that they are imbedded in our nervous system, and there is no getting rid of them. This is PTSD or CPTSD, just the same thing really. A good therapist may help you manage it, and give you techniques to use for doing that.
I had a great therapist, unfortunately, the techniques did not work for me (perhaps there were not enough activities where I could practice them), and after the last episode, which in itself added to my anguish, I decided the best course for me was to avoid any situation that would bring on a panic attack.
