MyPTSD Pro
When I told my spouse that my social anxiety was keeping me from doing things I used to do, like going to the mall by myself, he told me it's not safe to go to malls and he can take me when I want to go.
He told me that I needed to go away for 2 years and get "reprogrammed" so I could think right.
I should "just stop" catastrophizing and having black and white thinking..,when I start to defend myself I'm being "drama".
So I shut up.
And my favorite, he knows more about (ptsd, borderline, bipolar etc) than any professional because he's been living with me for so long.
Then he wants to know what's wrong when I'm depressed and have nothing to say to him.
It's almost as if he doesn't think I can get better even while getting help.
