    Relationship The Start Of Therapy Breakup

    Okay now I understand now that you re-worded it. I am leaving him alone at this point. Should I delete him from social media? I deactivated my Facebook weeks ago, and don't really post on snapchat, but I'm wondering why he didn't delete me like he normally does? And he's posting on snapchat more...

    Relationship The Start Of Therapy Breakup

    @Statsattack - I loved dancing since I was a kid. Never got the chance to take a class bc my parents couldn't afford it. I started the dance team in high school and I loved performing at basketball games. I've decided to start a hip hop class next week :) I think it'll help me a lot, thank you...

    Relationship The Start Of Therapy Breakup

    I am so exhausted and defeated I really thought for a second that I was evil, but I know I'm not. I work in health care and I take extra time with patients who want to share their stories with me, even if it has nothing to do with their cardiac issues and I know the doctor gets mad because we're...

    Relationship The Start Of Therapy Breakup

    It ruined my morning actually, but he's probably right. It went from meeting my veteran and feeling like he was a breathe of fresh air, something real and positive and too good to be true. To feeling like I couldn't breathe anymore. This monster slowly taking his focus off of "us" and "himself"...

    Relationship The Start Of Therapy Breakup

    I asked for a "separation" bc I knew he couldn't handle a relationship with starting therapy and having a breakdown, and it's something we both agreed to that he needed, but of course I didn't WANT that. I didn't mean I didn't want to build our friendship and talk every once in a while but as...

    Relationship The Start Of Therapy Breakup

    You were a big help! And I think you are right, I've heard this before and I don't believe him for a second. I'm just focusing on me again and hopefully in time he will come back when he's ready. And if he doesn't then I'm already focusing on myself so I'll still be okay.

    Relationship The Start Of Therapy Breakup

    Makes sense as to why he avoiding both me and his mother. Can't believe he is trying to convince me that he has no issues at all and doesn't need therapy and he doesn't love me.

    Relationship The Start Of Therapy Breakup

    Thanks NaeNae, you're giving me a little comfort and I wish I didn't react that way but I can't change it now. My emotions are running so high and I was upset to even hear that he told someone else we actually broke up. Come to find out he actually just said we were rocky and he didn't really...

    Relationship The Start Of Therapy Breakup

    Is it normal that someone with PTSD can be detached from their loved ones but not their friends? It seems like he's been rubbing it in my face lately. He would post on snapchat of him playing with his guns, or on his motorcycle or out with friends. And then at the fair, I demanded answers and he...

    Relationship The Start Of Therapy Breakup

    Yes my therapist specializes in PTSD. He told me to my face he didn't love me and its over. WTF is wrong with me? But I've heard this from him before just in different ways. "I don't love you and don't think I ever will" then "I love you but I'm not in love with you" then next break up "I don't...

    Relationship How Does One Begin To Determine What They Genuinely Want?

    I have contemplated leaving a few times recently, but my heart wont give up. But now "it's over" and he "doesn't love me like I love him". I think he's just not capable and open to love. I think therapy is a mess for him even though he says he doesn't need it. But he says hes continuing to go. I...

    I see my therapist next week, thanks for your response. I don't think he meant it either

    Do you think he meant the things he said? About not loving me and not needing therapy?

    Relationship The Start Of Therapy Breakup

    So I went and got my things. He told me he will continue therapy and I mentioned seeing a different therapist if he feels it's not helping. He thinks it's rediculous that we need therapy for us to have a relationship in our late 20's. He mentioned that therapy didn't discuss how to maintain a...

    At this point I just feel defeated. I don't wanna talk because he just hurt me so much I don't have anything to say. I just want to move on.

    Relationship The Start Of Therapy Breakup

    Same to you @NaeNae75, I'm just sitting in my car undecided if I want or have the energy to go explore and clear my mind alone, if I just want to go lay in my bed. I don't know how to let go, when the man talking to me last night was not the man I love, I don't even recognize him anymore. I need...

    Relationship The Start Of Therapy Breakup

    He didn't have faith in the VA, I like my therapist she's very thorough and specializes in PTSD. Think eventually when I have to get my things I'll give him her contact number.

    Relationship The Start Of Therapy Breakup

    Not enough I guess. I think I forced it out of him and he had no choice but to be cold, but I think he is just not capable of a relationship right now and he doesn't want to drag me along.

    Relationship The Start Of Therapy Breakup

    My veteran and I were together for 2.5 years. This will be out 3rd break up. He recently started therapy at the end of July. I told him he needs to focus on recovery and we will put our relationship aside for now. We haven't talked much at all, I told him about a few weeks ago that it's okay for...

    Relationship Why I Choose To Stay...

    Thanks @JT yes it helps. I also do a lot of research and reading up on PTSD. That was a good point you made about always pointing fingers at the PTSD because sometimes he really is just an ass. I like to think the hurtful things he's said to me were just him lashing out because he's overwhelmed...
