I wont get a loan for him, its not fair on anyone and we owe out more than enough. I will stick by my ultimatum, its just hard cos I know I have to and it would be so easy for him to make that decision for me by giving in....he's done so well and it would break my heart for him to risk losing us...

My PTSD suffering bf is also a cocaine addict. He has been clean for three months now. He was due to go into rehab last month for six months but because he had done so well by himself he said he would do better from home. It was a big risk as the opportunity wouldnt likely come up again but his...

Yes!! And remember, an interview is not just about you selling yourself for the role...it is about the role being sold to you too...they need someone to take that position as much as you feel you want it...so the pressure is not just on you. Just remember that the person interviewing you is not...

It might be a natural instinct to notice the opposite sex but I have never noticed my bf looking at others and I would never look at another man. Its called respect. My bf was Iinincredibly jealous when we got together....now I understand why...and it took near on two years for him to trust...

As a supporter myself I can only tell you how it is for me...we dont understand...I know its hard but communication is what will see you through. Its hard for him to understand and its hard for you to explain but you need both if this is going to work. Even tho you are both going to feel alone...

I'm not a sufferer, I am a supporter so I can only tell you my views as someone who has not been sexually abused. As a child I played games with my sister where one was the male and the other the female and we acted out scenes that involved kissing etc...it was completely innocent...you see...

Thank you! The reassurance is incredibly helpful already x

Thank you so much!!!

Yeah its both. All the members are people who are addicts with ptsd. The rehab he is going to is a rehab for addicts but they have said he will have a key worker who can focus on his ptsd as well as his addiction x

Thanks Mallaky, I hope so x

My partner was diagnosed in January...so far the diagnosis seems to have made things worse...he has had it for twenty years and is now so angry because it wasnt identified and diagnosed before. He feels he has lost out on a lot because his behaviour was put down purely to his 'selfish...

Thank you! I appreciate it xx

He hasnt had any intense therapy but if he is having a bad day he wont go to sessions....I try to tell him thats when he needs to go but he just says I dont understand. He is going away into a 6 month rehab when they have a bed available and I think that will do him good as they will concentrate...

I will ask him. He goes to counselling and has a key worker etc...and he talks to friends too...he might consider it though. My family and friends dont really know too much because they wouldnt really uunderstand because of the drugs and I dont want them to have a negative opinion of him...so I...

Hi, I am a supporter of a sufferer who was diagnosed in January. He has actually been a sufferer for 20 years after being sexually abused as a teenager. I have been with him for 6 years. We realised he was a cocaine addict in 2012 when things hit an all time low...his dad died in 2010 and he had...
