Are you referring to developmental trauma disorder that needs to be in the DSM. It sums up (this diagnosis) the reason why it should be addressed first in a new patient. It’s said everything done to treat a patient (meds., therapy, rehab etc) ends in failure. Maybe sufferers won’t need to build endless straw houses if the attention can go to the root first. I’m told that patients go through numerous diagnosis’s before even getting close to knowing that early trauma had a hand in: what looks like bi Polar, MDD, BPD, schizoid pd, etc.

Dave Snowden’s work on the Edge of Chaos and Otto Laske on child and adult development is worthy of attention And I’d advocate mesoscopic inquiry, as developed by Bojan Radej, as a more thorough evaluation methodology. The language and languaging of the lived experience requires a fresh look – a cptsd informed perspective is mighty powerful at all levels in society and for a myriad of reasons and reasons that require no more effort than to rehash old theories, however, well written. Who’s language is it anyways?
