Is self harm part of CPTSD?
Sometimes I get so angry and frustrated at myself that I can't help hitting myself in the head, banging my head on the wall, scratching myself ect.
My H thinks that's more of a cluster B trait that just gets me even more angry and frustrated at myself as I can't explain why I do it.
I have done things in the past whilst in flashbacks that has hurt my family, I know it's not right to take my issues from the past out on my family and I am working hard with a trauma therapist to work on these issues.
My H has been hurt and the questions often come up of why I did things, why I didn't care ect. But I just can't explain it it's like I'm 2 different people when I'm in a flashback and the inner critic is in full control of me, I don't want to do what's going on but I have no voice and I can't stop myself.
Sorry if this doesn't make sense today is not a good day
