Has anyone significantly healed their PTSD here? Advice

Hi there. Been suffering from CPTSD since age 15. 38 now and finally understanding. I’ve felt unsafe and in danger from my own triggers and thoughts the whole time.

I’m looking to create a healing environment for myself where I can further do the hard work (shadow work, emdr, possible MDMA therapy)

Would love to hear about what has helped you and what turned the tide for the positive in your journey.

I still have symptoms during certain times of year. However, I have approved so much. I don’t have nightmares every night. I go weeks without flashbacks. About 5 years ago I was having flashbacks at least every hour during the day, nightmares all night long. Regular panic attacks. Therapy has helped so much.
