116 - About acronyms and terms



I know it's an odd choice to start talking about it right now, but this is a post that shall be updated periodically, to include a number of acronyms that I use, their meaning and if I can, link to fuller definitions - especially of terms that I often use and shorten to save some time and space. 
So, without further ado, here are some of them :
  • CBT stands for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
  • cPTSD stands for Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. It is a ''more sever'' form of PTSD.
  • LGBTQ+ as in Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans and Queer, and is one of many other acronyms for an ever extending redefinition of gender and sexuality - outside of the mainstream dual-gender, dual-sexed society, called CISGENDER. 
  • MH is short for Mental Health - the main topic of this blog
  • OCD is rather known, but for those who never heard of it, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder
