I don't have PTSD but I strive to make this time easier on my DV. So we're not doing anything traditional but making our own traditions starting with combining Christmas/New Years on New Years Eve. Thanksgiving I let him sleep/veg out....cooked a non traditional meal. For Christmas going to do...
Remember this they take it out on those closest to them. They don't usually realize not only how much there body language speaks for them but also just how hurtful they can be. Going through it right now mines snapping/snarling, wanting to do nothing but sleep. Physically were OK but everything...
