@blue-eyes. I completely understand how you are feeling. I am at the same place right now. Honestly, if I didn't have my 8 year old daughter, I would have been out of this situation 6/7 years ago. If you don't have children with her, it is just you and you can go. It is hard, but not as hard...

@K201. Sorry for the delay in responding. Sure, message me and we can continue the chat.

@K201 - How long have you been dealing with PTSD?

K201 - For the first 7 years of our marriage we were in and out of theraphy, not knowing exactly what was wrong, so when he would pull away, I would kind of smother him trying to make him be in the moment. Obviously, this does not work, this only caused him to get really angry and yell and leave...

My husband and I struggle with this push/pull scenario constantly. The problem I am having is that after 8 years of this, I am feeling angry and alone. I don't feel that I have the energy to pull him back anymore. He was only diagnosed with PTSD in September of 2013, and I am seeing some very...

Hi everyone, Well, I have been going to my husbands theraphy sessions with him and pleased to report that things have gotton a little better. He is getting control of his verbal abuse. His therapist explained to him that under no circumstance should you be yelling at your wife and that seems to...

Thank you for your kind words. I don't talk to anyone about any of this and I think I just needed to hear someone tell me what I already knew and felt. I just had a thought.....yes another one...lol What if I haven't been there for him in the "right way". He was only diagnosed.....Is there a...

Thank you for your response......What I mean by "meanness" is that he finds fault with everything we do.....and i mean everything..he gets angry and yells, slams doors, bangs on the table.....yells some more. He is not physically abusive, but definitely verbally abusive. The real "him" appears...

I have been married to my husband for 8 years (we were friends for 4 years prior to that). We have a 7 year old daughter and two kids from my first marriage (ages 21 and 19). My husband and i have been in and out of therapy for years and he was finally recently diagnosed with PTSD. He is in...
