    Sufferer Full time father of 2, recovering from traumatic experience

    Thanks for replying and I agree with keeping busy, focusing on other things. I guess my issue is I still have the wolf at my door as psych put it. Our justice system is Fu#cked and until we do get justice we are vulnerable to ongoing harassment. Hopefully April we can move on.

    Sufferer Trauma bonded to avoidant

    Yes, as Sideways said it sounds exhausting. But they are also playing on emotion and your vulnerability - guilt tripping. This can wear you down emotionally and physically. You seem self aware which is good and already made first step. His issues aren't yours, don't be held ransom to them...

    Sufferer better late than never i guess

    You are not losing your mind, we always question ourselves when it comes to sanity and I think that is a positive thing realizing an issue. I understand the baking and reading as an outlet, I like tinkering mechanical/engines etc. Keep doing what you love and distracts you, I am sure its all...

    Not just my struggle, I have provided children with support from incidents they have witnessed which no child ever should. Create safe home focus on being both parents in nature. Comforting and supportive. while they are dealing with trauma too.
