And as a C-PTSD and ADHD fellow struggler, I can highly recommend EMDR. A painful but very effective intervention in my experience, alongside DBT.

It works on a deep level and faster than talk therapy. I think you are very wise to ensure you have a support system in place. After EMDR sessions, I often felt very raw and emotional, and it was tough to deal with that alone. But I did and it certainly sorted out the core issues. Go well, OP.
