What does healing from CPTSD actually look like? I feel like I'm going in circles.

I can be safe in a room and my nervous system will not take the memo. I don't even have a clean name for it. I just know it keeps running the day. I'm not trying to collect the worst story in the room. I'm trying to understand why my baseline is still braced. I figured if anyone would get it, it would be people here. I don't need a perfect answer. Even a small thing that made the next day easier would help.
