So last time I posted it was about my guy cheating with 2 people while lying to me. I don't want him back, but I am still extremely hurt. So as much as he said he didn't want a "serious relationship" when this all began in March, yet we never really stopped being a couple, once the cheating...

I finally came to my breaking point. Things had been so good and I hadn't been here to post. Then one day I get a text asking if he and I were together. It was a "friend" that I knew he spent time with. Through our texts I found out he had been sleeping with her for 3 months. Devastated doesn't...

i am happy with the way things are and have been with my guy. We are together almost daily now and I sleep over at his place pretty much 6-7 nights a week. We go out to eat, cook together, are around my friends, everything a couple does, BUT he still says we aren't "together" as in a...

So I posted the other day that my guy said I love you to me and I was ecstatic because I am seeing pieces of the old him coming back, some slowly, some a little quicker now. On Wednesday, he got really sick at work and texted me that he was going home and would I come over. Of course I ran to...

I've mostly talked about my guy with combat PTSD and my issues of being a supporter. But today was My chance to take back all my brother stole from me when I was age 4-10. My mother who acts like she knows nothing about the sexual abuse, though she does, inadvertently forwarded an email to me...

So things with my guy have been great, really great lately. The only thing right now "bothering" me is that he won't invite me to join him with his family. Even at 46, almost 47 (next month) he is too worried about "what they will think". They all adore me and he does talk to them about me but...

First let me say that I couldn't have done this without all of you wonderful guys here and the advice and support you've given me!!!! So, Thursday and Friday, he has said "I love you". Then yesterday evening he went to my neighborhood pool party and met all my friends here and wasn't stressed...

So I posted about a week ago that I had cut off my vet with combat PTSD. He then went from calm to irrational and very upset. That night he also sent a very good apology and came over the next day to apologize more. He suggested that day that we go a week with no communication. He later texted...

I finally cut him off. I've blocked his texts and calls so he has gone to email. Within 2 hours he's switched from being understanding and kind to being so hateful. This is what I feared the most was that if I cut him off it would set him into a rage. Yesterday when he needed it, I took him to...

So my ex fiancé, who needs space but is still daily in my life by his choice has me in such a roller coaster that I can't seem to get off of. Each day I will think this is it, I'm done, I'm not responding, then he calls or texts and I get excited like a kid on Christmas morning. I was ok thru...

My guy is in the midst of a horrible PTSD episode. The kind where he pushes me away, which I'm learning and understanding thru this site. I'm the only one in 15 years he's shared his combat stories with. In 2 years this is only the second where pushes me out of the picture. He says he needs...

My whatever he may be has combat PTSD. He broke up in March and said he needed space yet still is in daily contact with me. How is that space. I love him dearly so I love when he does text or call, but in so many ways it makes me so confused. If I even try to go one day ignoring him he will...

So now my whatever you want to call him with combat PTSD is on a dating site, OKCupid. He did this the last time to after telling me he didn't want to be in a relationship and most recently saying he couldn't handle a relationship or dating right now. Last time when I found out, he said it was...

My guy is back to pulling away after a great week. I'm coming unglued because I feel like I'm losing him again. I cried myself to sleep last night and since I woken today I've cried until I took a Xanax. Is it normal for them to be ok a few days and then pull away ago? It's ripping my heart...

So my USAF PTSD sufferer went into his shut down mode, not so much isolation mode, because we haven't gone a day without texting or talking or both, since March. His cup overflowed and March has always been a bad month for him. I got him to agree to go to therapy which no one else has ever...

So I orinslly posted in March when I was in the deepest pits of hell from depression bc my fiancé took off to get a job in Austin and a place for to have our little blended family move to when my children finished school. Less than a week in his cup overflowed and he broke it off and shut down...

Can anyone answer why the supporters, in my case, I'm the girlfriend, always get pushed so far away and then the sufferer is always with shallow friendships. I'm the only one he's shared his events with and the only one that's been there to help him but when the going gets tough, BAM, I'm gone...

So I posted awhile back about my boyfriend going into a bad PTSD. Episode right after he moved away to begin our new life. It has taken such a toll on me I've been in bed for 2 weeks straight and I've been unable to function for myself much less my children. Now I'm frantic and feel like I've...

I posted a couple weeks ago that my vet with PTSD had gone back to the isolation period. Now he's at the stage, which I vaguely remember from a year ago, where he is telling me how wonderful and perfect I am and he's just a dumbass that deserves so much better than him. So this leads to the push...

My vet has Combat PTSD, so he finally went to the Dr for his meds. He has been on Paxil for 18 years and the Dr pulled him off cold turkey and started him on Lexapro. He's on week 2 now but is having trouble sleeping and says he feels depressed a lot more that he hasn't felt before. Our...

my combat vet is in the isolation stage right now, pushing me away because he feels he's too broken for me and I deserve better. We've been here before, but I wasn't aware of what it was from. Now I'm aware and I'm giving him his space and just curious is there a general time frame? Last year...

Can any combat veterans recommend the best books you would recommend for Complex PTSD? I've seen a few listed here but there don't seem to be geared at Combat PTSD. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

Hi. I'm new here. I've been in a serious relationship with a vet with combat PTSD for just over a year and a half. Since September he was living with me and my 2 small children. He moved 2 weeks, the day after buying my engagement ring, to move to Austin and get a job and place to live. He...
