I talked to my psychiatrist about that diagnosis, and she agreed that I didn't fit the criteria. My therapist also later implied that she gave me that diagnosis so that I could qualify for a medical marijuana card, so I'm not really sure what to believe. No one ever beat me, raped me, abused me, or put me through a war. The most traumatic thing that ever happened to me was being raised in a religion that forced a lot of toxic beliefs on me. But no one ever forced me to stay in that religion and when I left, my family didn't disown me or try to bring me back into the fold. A C-PTSD diagnosis sounds a bit like overkill in relation to something like that.
