No, ptsd does not make someone cheat. That is just plain crap. Nobody can tell you why he does it (maybe even he don't know) but don't let anyone tell you it's cause he had ptsd! You have not made him cheat, hun. Nobody makes anybody cheat. They choose to do it.

I can relate. I also thought I was crazy.

I slept about 8 hours. But had a dream I went back to abusive ex. He was being nice, but had a smug "I have her in my control again" look. I had a feeling of dread and shame - true to how it really was when going back. In this dream I was trying to call my mum with no answer. Trying to reach...

As already said, nobody here can diagnose you. But you are clearly suffering. I urge you to get professional help. They can help you to work out what's going on for you. You are dealing with a few ptsd like symptoms, but only a pro could diagnose for sure. To answer your question - i do think...

I can only speak for myself, and my opinions(as a sufferer). I would be careful in this situation. I'm just worried that he might be "stringing you alone" Yes it's true someone with ptsd has deep rooted issues. It's true we gaurd ourselves to an extent - some more than others. But personally...

Tooo hot for me.

Finally slept around 8:00am, untill 12:30pm. No nightmares which is nice.

It is stupidly hot!

That is so interesting, Maddog. Thank you.

I slept in the early morning. I slept deep and for a good amount of hours for me (the night before i got an hour) No nightmares. Which means I likely won't sleep at all tnight! :/

Happy Birthday! Enjoy it :)

... Your partner asks you to pass him a bottle of drink. You give him your book instead. ... You forget what you were talking about, in the middle of saying it

Can we talk about shame? Do you have it? How can you overcome it? I have noticed since starting my trauma diary, how much shame I actually have. I have shame for certain choices I made. Bad choices that led me to situations which got me hurt. Getting away from a situation, going back, getting...

I've said for years, I won't make it to my 30th birthday. I was actually convinced. It was just a fact. Buy since I met my finance, life got better (oh trust me I still struggle a lot, but I'm not suicidal) Now I think there a chance I will make it, a chance I will grow old. So I dunno if...

Physically unwell.

I don't really have any answers. There's just something about that violation. They think they have the right to take what they want, use and control your body. You are ignored. You become like an object. Not a living human being with feelings and rights. It's disgusting and the damage is...

I'm sorry for your loss. Wishing you peace.

... Somebody shouting turns you back into a 5 year old child. ... You stop on the street to let the people behind you go ahead of you. Don't want anyone behind me thanks. ... You're young but your body feels old. ... A knock on the door means danger. You turn into a ninja.

Sore....

I'm sorry for all you have been through. You sure have been through a lot. Kudos on being so brave to share it all :)

Well done on starting your diary. I'm sorry for you and your mum, what an ordeal to go through.

A man walks into a bar...ouch. A horse walks into a bar. The barman asks "why the long face?" What is brown and sticky? A stick. A man visits his doctor. "dr, I need help." "what is wrong, sir?" "I feel like a pair of curtains" "pull yourself together!" A woman runs into the emergency room...

Hi, lala. Well done on starting your trauma diary. I am sorry for your pain and all you've been through.

...You really did go through trauma, of course you did. Well, maybe you didn't - maybe you are making it all up...no you did. You've had a horrible time of it. Oh shut up, you drama queen. People have had it worse than you! But...maybe you did go through trauma, but you're making it out to be...

Unworthy of calling myself a "survivour" and having ptsd :/
