🧠 Understanding Complex Trauma and Common Comorbid Disorders
Complex Trauma (C-PTSD)
C-PTSD develops from prolonged exposure to traumatic experiences—often interpersonal. It can affect emotional regulation, sense of self, and the ability to trust. Healing requires safety, connection, and trauma-informed support.
Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD)
BPD involves intense emotions, difficulty with relationships, fears of abandonment, and identity challenges. With proper therapy (like DBT), compassion, and consistent support, people with BPD can and do achieve stability and meaningful recovery.
Depression
More than low mood, depression impacts energy, motivation, sleep, thinking, and overall functioning. Treatment often includes therapy, medication, lifestyle changes, and strong community support. Sustained remission—like Nicki’s—is absolutely possible.
Anxiety Disorders
Anxiety becomes a disorder when it interferes with daily life. It can manifest as panic, worry, tension, or physical symptoms. Care that blends grounding skills, therapy, and support networks can significantly reduce symptoms.

🩵 A Message of Hope
Nicki’s journey is a powerful reminder:
Recovery is real. Healing is possible. Your story isn’t over.
To EVERY person fighting to stay here—
You are worthy of support, you deserve care, and you are never alone.
