About a year ago, I stumbled across a podcast that, while not specific to cptsd issues, deals with a broad spectrum of people experiencing various sorts of pain and trauma in their lives. It's not always as grim as it seems, either. The topics of grief, death, loss, and abuse sometimes can be so bad as to lead to the absurd opposite--humour, laughter, acceptance of how badly we can fall. This description from the site says it well:

"You know how every day someone asks "how are you?" And even if you're totally dying inside, you just say "fine," so everyone can go about their day? This show is the opposite of that. Hosted by author (It's Okay to Laugh (Crying Is Cool Too)) and notable widow (her words) Nora McInerny, this is a funny/sad/uncomfortable podcast about talking honestly about our pain, our awkwardness, and our humanness, which is not an actual word."
