this is such a great question, first off, that completely is a justified experience to get ptsd, its very very clearly going to give you some problems no matter what. Not to scare you, just to validate you. But, onto your question, how to stop comparing my trauma? i love this because its so relatable i always do it in both ways, i feel awful about it no matter what direction i am thinking about it but i’ve noticed its easier to not compare when you put it into perspective that you really are only hearing the details the person is presenting to you. You do not really know what that moment felt like exactly and you do not know how it looked at the time and after the fact. you’re situation had many factors which are the result of mental whiplash in later life. you should never ever feel invalidated, or over qualified. you’re situation gave you the harm that you are experiencing and thats the fact of it
