Thanks Casey, for your advice. I'll grin and bear it for now.

Hi all- I'm currently 18 weeks pregnant and engaged to the least emotionally supportive male on the planet. I have had ptsd for 4 years from a very verbally, emotionally, and at times sexually abusive relationship with a previous partner. I was open with my new partner about it but he has...

He has been texting an ex girlfriend for months. And they went to lunch secretly a couple weeks ago. I just found out via his phone texts when trying to upload a picture to my computer. The texts were open to that page. I've never even heard of this person.

My boyfriend had hit a big ptsd trigger with me. He lied to me in a grevious way and my trust of him is now in question, where I thought I was safe before. Logically, I think his actions are hurtful, wrong, and detrimental to our relationship. But in my less logical mind, I am shaking, racing...

Thank you all for your replies. I feel so much less alone. I've bent over backwards trying to please this guy. He acts like he's happy all the time. Then I say one thing, and BOOM, out comes the rage. He says its just the last straw each time. I somehow get to the last straw and I don't even...

I just think you're an amazing person to care this much about her suffering.

I came home tonight and he was really mad. He packed up all his stuff again and left. He was mad because I was still feeling upset about something that happened this morning. It had triggered me and I said so, told him why and then what happened before that made it a trigger. He explained to...

My boyfriend one 1 and half years keeps telling me to not talk about previous traumatic experiences and to just move on. Meanwhile, he causes more trauma himself inadvertently. He's gotten really mad at me twice because i wasnt being positive enough. The first time he packed up all his stuff...

Well he left me, said he's been barely been able to stand me since September. I just had no idea. I feel like I've had the legs slapped out from under me. He had a very blaming conversation with me and said he needed a breather because I'm emotionally exhausting. I feel so terrible there just...

Thanks for all of your thoughtful advice. He is not interested in learning about PTSD. I did tell him I had it and vaguely the cause. I said I would be happy to answer any questions and be active with him. And that I am very active at improving myself and take full responsibility. He doesn't...

Thanks for your advice. It's been a long night, no sleep. I'd be very sad if he's looking for an excuse to break up. He has been very serious about me up to this point. I admit, I had no idea he had so much anger at me inside of him. Or that much anger period. He is a very gentle person...

Thanks, rumors. I'm not sure if he is okay or not. I know he's very upset. It's really tough for me to communicate my feelings and feel safe doing so because of my past. I do freeze along the way sometimes if anything unexpected happens...I feel uncertain and freeze. I've tried to explain it...

I'm in a relationship, 10 months, with a great guy. But I really freeze emotionally and physically when he does something unexpected that disappoints me. It's just minor things, but I react by shutting down. I can't come out of it for about a day. Tonight I came out of a freeze and tried to...
