Quizplus · Accepted Answer

CPTSD (Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder) differs from PTSD not primarily in the duration of symptoms, but in the complexity of symptoms. CPTSD results from prolonged or repeated trauma over months or years, rather than a single event, and includes additional symptoms such as difficulty controlling emotions, distrust towards the world, and feeling detached from one's identity or physical self, beyond the symptoms typically associated with PTSD.
