Complex Post Traumatic Disorder (CPTSD) and Codependency

Early childhood Attachment- Anxious and Avoidant attachment styles that lead to issues as an adult
Caused by long-term repeated trauma such as being with a verbally abusive partner, parent, co worker or friend. This can result in hypervigilance, flash backs, walking on egg shells, anticipating something to go wrong, anxiety, social anxiety, depression and codependency.
A codependent individual seeks validation from others due to early childhood attachment issues. The person more than often attracts manipulative individuals due to their need to care. A highly sensitive person can fall under the definition of codependency. The person then cycles through complex post trauma (CPTSD) as they negotiate the relationship with the toxic individual.
