This unit moves from the biology you covered in Unit 2 into the actual clinical picture — starting with PTSD as it’s formally understood, then Complex PTSD, and finally dissociation, one of the most misread trauma responses of all. These build on each other closely, so read them in order if you can — each one leans on ideas from the one before it.

This second set moves from diagnosis into practice — how these presentations are actually assessed and told apart from one another, why symptoms sometimes don't surface for years, and the myths worth clearing up before Unit 4. As with the rest of this unit, read them in order, since each one builds on what came just before.
