What symptoms does C-PTSD share with BPD? (And let's keep in mind that we are encouraged to stay away from "weasel words.") The attempt to use attachment theory to explain a commonality between BPD and C-PTSD is poorly written and unclear, as are the last three sentences that attempt to explain the differences between C-PTSD and BPD.
