Mark has his own KZbin channel at kzbin.info/door/YF6tWycCs-fDevtl8oJtqQ . He promised me he would be posting more soon. Also, if anybody would like to learn more about recovering from Complex PTSD I highly recommend the book Complex PTSD: From Surviving to Thriving. I have no connection or correspondence with the author at all, it's just an incredibly insightful book.

@@nightyew2160 it’s funny because when I got it that was what people said and I honestly didn’t even think about the irony of it until afterwards lol. The full tattoo is a black cross with the suicide symbol in the middle of cross and bright water colors all around and with the words “this is temporary” at the bottom. The full meaning of the tattoo is I found God when I was at the brink of death (suicidal) which is why the cross is black since black symbolizes death and God came to me on the night when I was sitting on my kitchen floor contemplating that this was going to be the day and God said “get up off the kitchen floor. You have to live for your daughter” after that day I never thought about suicide again and from the place of darkness I found the beauty in life (which is what the bright colors mean) and “this is temporary” was the phrase I would always tell myself if ever the thought even ran across my mind again. And I made sure I got it huge to always remind myself to never be in that place again. The tattoo is my full side! Even the artist was like you sure you want it that big and I’m like yep!!!! Because it’s a place I never want to go to again and the moment I see myself in the mirror I see it!

However, considering C-PTSD happens at a time where the brain has not yet fully developed, I can only imagine the impact it can have as the brain matures.

It’s just so odd that this was shown on my recommended at a perfect time for me. Mark’s advice and the things he would say if he could tell his old self the moment he was going to do it hit so deeply for me that I am quite speechless. And the fact that he was so glad he could still play his favorite instruments-piano is my biggest passion, and I know I’ll miss not being able to play anymore.

You can't do it for the people that are telling their stories because they have already went thru it. But know that thousands of kids are going thru similar or even worst things right at this moment, there are soo many kids in forster care. You should consider becoming a foster or adoptive parent.

I’m so glad Mark survived though- Mark, you are thoughtful, you are amazingly resilient… you are wonderful, deeply impactful, beautifully unique in your own special way… thank you for sharing this piece of yourself with the world.

As a sufferer of cPTSD, I thought that it was normal to not remember things before 5, but when I started talking to people who had "clean/normal" childhoods, they could remember things from 2-3 years old. I was also sexually abused at multiple phases in my life starting at age 4. A LOT of the feelings of feeling unloved, unwanted, feeling inadequate, not good enough, wanting to take my life, being deceived by people who were supposed to be close to me, STILL feeling like this on some days (not suicidal thank goodness), therapy to work through the pain even though its hard...I felt this story 1,000,000%. THIS is what its like to be through the ringer of life (in one of the sad ways) I feel glad that he's here right now and yet I feel bad for him that the very people that should have protected him didn't (yes, I mean his dad as well....I understand that's what he was trying to do, but not telling him of his mother's deeds is not good whatsoever). This man seems like he has support, but not from the people who should have absolutely be there. From one cPTSD to another, I'm so sorry, but I'm so happy for you at the same time.

“I decided… I can't relive my past because I can't change it”. My favourite quote from Mark in this video. As someone who has been diagnosed with C-PTSD, depression and anxiety, I'm telling you now, this video is life changing for people who are struggling right now. Especially for people who are resurfacing their traumas. It is so beyond powerful hearing his story, and I'm honoured to have heard it. The fact that he has learnt to accept and overcome through therapy and by using his other senses like communication/music is so impressive and inspiring. Therapy and creative passions are also my favourite tools for recovery as well (I'll admit I was sceptical before starting therapy, I just needed to find the right approach/therapist). Thank you, Chris, for capturing Mark's story and for raising awareness for those recovering from trauma and living with C-PTSD.

Definitely talk to them, but if they don’t respond don’t just give up. It’s hard to talk about/admit, getting angry or defensive is a natural coping mechanism. Plus talking about this too someone your close to can actually be harder than a stranger, so don’t be offended if they can’t talk to you. If they’re really struggling therapy could really help. All you can really do is listen to them, remind them how much they’re loved and be there when they’re ready to reach out for help. Try and engage with things they enjoy, organise activities, just don’t give up and keep reaching out.
