Hi, thank you for the amazing, vital work you're doing. I wanted to ask: does MAPS distinguish between (Complex)-PTSD- trauma sustained over a long period (like childhood abuse and neglect), and PTSD from a single traumatic event, or a more short-lived period of time (like being involved in horrific car crash)? I read that C-PTSD isn't officially recognized in the DSM-5, but it seems to be gaining ground among psychologists and patients. It also seems to be somewhat fundamentally different from PTSD. I might be incorrect, but that's just my observation. Thanks again!
