I understand that..
When you see someone you love mentally hurting my initial instincts was to try and FIX the problem.. It's a normal reaction..
But l have been having counselling to understand why we can only support not fix..
23 yrs of military services and l have supported 2 deployements...
That's ok..I have thick skin..
My husband has been living with the black dog for 20 yrs but it's been the last 5 yrs that my husband has hit rock bottom.. PTSD and Clinical Depression..
Suicidal, hospital admissions off and off.. Meds that makes him feel numb, zombie alike.. Spending days, wks...
I feel for all love ones that are the ones that stand beside their partners with PTSD..
Of course strangers are good because they aren't bias and don't know your full history but how would you like to be on the other side dealing with your illness..
Be understanding to the people who love you...
