Hello Everyone

I was diagnosed with c-ptsd earlier last year at age 63
It was obvious-I've been dealing with it forever.
I'm married almost 40 years and my partner and I are looking for appropriate websites or books for partners of folks living with c-ptsd.
Any suggestions???
Thanks in advance :)

Welcome here EB.
For me, reading Complex PTSD: From Surviving to Thriving by Pete Walker was a watershed moment. I highly recommend starting there. Also for partners. Especially knowing what an emotional flashback means can be helpful to understand what the other person is going through. If you're looking for sources that are aimed at support for partners, I honestly don't know a single one. I think that isn't covered yet.

Good luck!
