Understand AI use at MyPTSD: all AI use is explained in our AI help page. AI use is by choice here. It exists if you want it, but does nothing unless you choose to use it.
Hello everyone. I know I said I was getting off this site but I had to come back here and apologize to everyone. When I wrote this post I was so hurt about everything that was happening in my world. I was already lonely because I moved somewhere completely new and she was a source of support at...
From coming to this site I realize now that I was pretty harsh when I was told not to contact my gf. Then again, I don't think it's an excuse to completely ignore someone you know is worried about you for weeks let alone months. I completely understand needing space. Space is a week or two tops...
That's because that's what I hope for vs what's really happening. I want her to be happy and safe and no I'm not dire pecking her boundaries. She literally told me today that she needed no contact and so I purposely deleted the app we were talking on so I wouldn't be tempted. She can call if she...
I am not even disrespecting her boundaries ...chill out. I am leaving her alone. I came here to get some advice on how to deal with a first time PTSD relationship not to be ridiculed by those who do have it. If I didn't care about her and our relationship I wouldn't be here. Anyone would be...
I don't think I do at least. I've gone through therapy for years but it seems useless sometimes since I can't remember a lot of my childhood...or a lot of things actually. I just know that my problems show in my relationships. I am caring though. Sometimes too caring.
This might just be me being desperate at this point, but if I was nothing but supportive for three weeks then sort of lashed out when I was told not to contact her because she is "f*cked up right now" would you disregard all the care and support I put in previously? My biggest fear is that my...
Thanks you so much Taylor30313. That meant a lot.it sounds kind of sick to say but I actually viewed her disease as a way to connect with her like I couldn't connect with anyone else. All my past relationships have been with healthy people and never thought they understood real trauma. She's...
That makes sense. I still feel a little cheated...I have some issues of my own (childhood abuse) and I told her about it after I pushed her away for a couple days. I felt so (and still feel) so lost sometimes that I almost wanted to push her away for good. Then I realized that I didn't want to...
I guess I still have hope because I have read stories of people coming around once they have healed on their own. I know for right now we cannot be in a relationship. She is still recovering and , frankly, I don't think I am ready to handle this type of relationship right now unless I know she...
Justmehere don't tell me that I'm bullshitting anything. I was concerned for her. I really was. I still care for her. I am greatly relieved that she is alive and well.
I appreciate your input joeylittle. I'm still just trying to understand the disease. Yes, honestly, I did feel abandoned. I did visualize this great long distance relationship once I started classes at a university I wanted to go to. I was just confused (and still am a little confused) on how...
Again...I'm not upset that she didn't talk to me or wanted space. I am upset because I merely wanted to know if she harmed herself and physically okay.
