This video explores how our brains and nervous systems adapt to growing up in a dysfunctional environment and what that can look like in adulthood. How does it show up in behaviours, beliefs, thoughts and feelings?
This video explains how Complex PTSD works on a biological level and it covers the Structural Dissociation Model.
An short excerpt from my website on the effects of a dysfunctional childhood on the body below:

When the body is triggered into action by cues in the environment it will go into either hyperarousal (fight or flight) or hypoarousal (freeze or submit). These are known as ‘procedurally learned responses,’ which means they are automatic responses from the system of defences, unique to each individual.
A person’s defence mechanisms are tailored to their life experiences and to what has previously worked best for them in situations where they have felt under threat.
Each part of the personality contributes a defensive strategy, for example, Fight is a hypervigilant soldier on the lookout for danger. Flight rescues us from pain by using addictive behaviours to get relief from painful feelings by ‘turning off’ the body.
