I have been friends with Alexandra since 2012. You’ll hear about that if you listen to the episode she recently released of her podcast that explores CPTSD (complex-PTSD).
My Acronym Life is part of Alex’s work creating The CPTSD Diaries, her substack exploring this side of her life and shining light on a little talk about but serious mental and medical health situation. I am no professional, nor is she, and we make sure that’s clear. But as 2 folks swimming through this inky sea, finding each other and being able to talk about trauma like it’s normal has been a little lighthouse (to continue the sea metaphor) shining a way to shore.
I am honored to be her friend and guest and excited that we get to talk about this openly. I am the guest on the first episode of season three where we discuss how we met and how I learned about CPTSD.
The episode is available on her substack, The CPTSD Diaries or via apple podcast.
