    General What are they thinking?

    My Vet is so very stressed because he lost a button. Yes, exactly this. Nothing else. His boss and coworkers might have noticed. Not sure. Video conference. They are still in homeoffice. He has been trembling and got sick. He felt very stressed and realized he overreacted but could not bring his...

    My Vet is sort of sick (back pain, doesnt want to eat) but of course does not want to see a doctor because he is afraid of catching the Coronavirus.

    Relationship I can’t stop being angry at him

    You are very welcome. I have discussed this (talking to my Vet) with other man and other vets and others on this board and it has helped me a lot understand him better... including @Friday and @Freida who happen to be Vets. May be they have something to add too.

    Relationship I can’t stop being angry at him

    Happy New Year. Have you tried framing it another way. For example instead of saying “You watch TV instead of helping me work“ you could say “I have got so much work to do. Would you mind helping me with this job right now?“? Dunno. We have got four kids and a lot of work. I am very fortunate...

    Happy New Year. I hope you all had a nice New Years Eve. Here they banned the sake of fireworks this year, because they are afraid crowds would gather to watch them and because they feared people would get hurt and it would add strain on hospitals. I think a lot of Vets might be happy about the...

    German engineering but not German art of deal. Did you ask if the anthem was “risen from the ruins“ before you edited? No, it is not. That was the anthem of the German Democratic Republic but it is not a bad question. A lot of people from other countries think it is our national anthem. But the...

    Forgot to mention that it is the new mutant that makes him so scared because it is said to be even more infectious. Just saw in my post above I wrote we quarrel a lot. It is actually not true. It is just really important for him we follow the hygiene rules. Yes and we argue about this, but apart...

    My Vet was not so optimistic about the vaccination because the EU bought fewer doses of the biontech vax. It was invented in Germany, paid for by German taxpayers money, but the US bought most doses before the EU could. Hope you all sing the German national anthem if you happen to be vaccinated...

    Are you okay? I have heard that there is hunger now in the USA. Do you need help? We are in full lockdown now. My Vet is all doom and gloom because of the mutant. He is adding more things to out prepping stash. Right now he is writing a list. I feel we might catch it. I am not sure. We might of...

    Hello! How are you and your guy doing? Hope you are well + also feeling okay. I really don’t like 2020. My guy is quite scared especially because a guy from him work died. My great-uncle died but somehow I am feeling pretty numb. He was in his 90s and had been ill for years. We have been...

    How are you coping? I have heard that the vaccine was already aproved for the US. Are they already vaccinating the first people? It has not been approved for the european union yet, but most likely will be soon.

    So my vet really went shopping (early in the morning when the shop had just opened). People were mostly disciplined, everybody wearing masks (as is the law in shops in our country) but some didn’t cover their noses. Most kept their distance (again it’s the law). But my vet was still happy when...

    General Do men with ptsd want your empathy?

    Depends on what you call a lot. Typically... maybe one or two bottles of wine a week or maybe three. Or maybe a bottle of wine and a bottle of sherry a week... or a bottle of wine and four or five bottles of beer. He says he is trying to controll it... so that he doesn’t drink too much. In my...

    General Why do veterans seem to stare

    Perimeter check has already been mentioned. My vet has the habit of... well... not really staring... but looking at the horizon while talking when we are out in the countryside. I got pretty used to it. What he hates us when another guy is staring at him/us... which makes him stare back...

    No, you don’t have to feel guilty. I do not exactly understand why it is like this but I understand that it is like this and that it is bad for him and he didn’t choose it.

    General Do men with ptsd want your empathy?

    @LuckiLee Thats very sad.? Don’t know what to say now. Does praying and watching TV help him. My vet actually often has nightmares of things that have not happened but could happen such as his loved ones dying of coronavirus... and when he wakes up he realizes that coronavirus is really a...

    My vet is finally meeting with a friend this Friday. It’s gonna be the first time in months and he is very afraid. I am not sure yet if he will really do it. He also plans to go shopping this week. Again first time in months... and not necessary because we have everything we need and can buy at...

    General Do men with ptsd want your empathy?

    Thanks. My vet has a lot of nightmares recently and I wish I could just cuddle him and tell him he is home and safe... but for him... I guess it doesn’t feel safe... because he always has to do perimeter check and if I tell him “Don’t do perimeter check. It’s safe“ he feels like he has to do it...

    A lot of time he eats but he is always a picky eater... and Yep, I think he just stopped planning... but I only realized when I talked about the next year with him and he had no idea... and then I realized that he hadn’t been talking about the next years/ what we will do/ what his career will be...
