Childhood Trauma is a Primer for Complex PTSD: An Informed Patient's Perspective on Complex PTSD (Stoning Demons)

By Kimberly Callis

Stoning Demons is an informed patient's perspective on Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, Developmental Trauma and Marijuana-Supported Therapy. This work is focused on Complex PTSD as it relates to childhood trauma and its lifelong impacts on the health and psychology of the victim. Book 1 explains how trauma experienced in childhood can prime a person for development of Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder later in life. I found the study of developmental psychology extremely helpful for understanding the deeper effects of my CPTSD. Reading about it helped me in surprising ways. I stumbled onto the topic while I was researching dysfunctional families. Getting to some level of understanding of the topic has led me to look at childhood and its foundation for development of emotional, relational, self-regulatory and self-image imprints into adulthood in a clearer, less emotional way. It helped me detach a bit from experiencing my pain, to understanding it. I hope that this work will help others with Complex Post-traumatic Stress Disorder
