I know CPTSD is usually associated with having a diminished sense of self, trouble making choices, insecurity, low self esteem.

I actually feel like my upbringing made me more assured of myself, more willing to do ANYTHING to get out of the circumstances I was born into, and very confident that I knew better than the adults around me due to how terrible they were. I definitely feel the utter aloneness, a sense of being different than others, though not in a better way, just unable to fit in.

Just curious if anyone else relates to this, because it seems maybe a little ego driven and i feel a little bad about always being so sure of myself (despite the chaos it may bring upon me)
