I was told I have cptsd but now I'm hearing the diagnosis requires flashbacks?? I get triggered but do not have flashbacks. Now wondering if I don't have cptsd and if emdr wing help me. My mom was borderline and I get very triggered by perceived rejection or by being watched while I do things— to the point that it is debilitating snd can put me in a spiral for a couple of days.
Just quickly want to point out in case you were unaware. Cptsd flashbacks are not necessarily always the same as PTSD flashbacks.
Emotional flashbacks are different and don't necessarily have the visual portion that traditional flashbacks do.
