thanks @joeylittle it is a really tough topic and decision .... so personal.

@MaybeOneDay. i think it is a great site for support. I am a supporter on here and everyone, although they tested me really bad at the beginning, but every single one i have been in touch on here was extremely nice and helpful. good luck. And the chat seems to be a great place when you...

just a little question. what makes it a bad idea for most to tell your partners ? They do not believe ? they run away ? they don't treat you appropriately ? or is it just that you give away too much of yourself, of your trauma in the process ? From my perspective, I know I would be much...

i understand @Maggiemay, totally. I am also fearing the day my partner, who is the one with PTSD find out about my posts. But it helped me a lot to get some kind of understanding....

@maggienay. Thank you for sharing, it is awesome. I learned most of what I know about trauma (which is probably close to nothing) on here, and it has been a real eye opener...... Is your husband reading on this site too?

welcome @FishNH. you will get a lot of support on here...

hold on tight @Glara, i was also in the same boat as you were. I made the mistake to reach to friends of hers and mine which was a huge mistake. I knew no better at the time, and i have learned and got a lot of support on here.... I seemed to have to be blamed for everything that happened...

welcome @Kage, you will learn a lot on here like i did )))

@nursenurse she is talking to me again though. But I really have to give her the cold shoulder to get her more involved... I know that I am just trying to do too much ....... They say that sometime love is leaving her. But it just is so unfair..... I have already been trough so much in my...

@nursenurse. looks like this is addressed to both of us.....

I find taking care of myself just totally impossible as all my energy is absorbed by me trying to figure out what is happening and to correct what I have done wrong. Initially I could not sleep for days, and even had to cancel a couple of days of work as I could not cope... Now i am focusing...

welcome shumsky. I am trying to support my GF who has PTSD and who is really challenging and questioning everything i do, But I discovered this site a couple of weeks ago, and indeed it does give me a lot of information and support. I just wish I had discovered this site earlier, It might have...

@blue_eyes18 O man I really feel for you as I am experienced the exact same thing. After being together for 2 years, she one day woke up saying she likes me but is not in love with me anymore. We have been struggling ever since and she has started therapy. Since then it is a continuous...

Hi there. I do have a question. When your sufferer takes his "time out" in isolation, he just quietly moves away, or he makes a scene, saying you are not good to him(her), you are toxic, disrespectful, etc, then ignores you for days or weeks, before showing back on your doorstep? I have...

@Solara. I have the same trouble with S. I also feel communication would have prevented most of the troubles we are going trough at the moment. PTSD, I really did not understand it as it is so complex, and indeed she is 2 totally different persons. At the moment she seems to be struggling to...

@Trying best the things i have learned here is that sufferers, yes they hurt others, but often they are not aware of it, and if they are, they have NO CONTROL of what is happening to them. They are hurting themselves more than they are hurting us. So to criticize their wrong doing is really...

@Trying best you know those people are really going trough hell, day after day. I discover terrible things every day, and most of the time i end up wondering, who am I complaining about how hurt I feel ? I try to support my GF the best I can. I have failed a lot, mainly for trying too much...

that means you ARE smiling then )))

nice @Ayesha.. and now you can smile as i said yesterday )))))

@Trying best you at the right place, just spend time reading around here.... I have joined the site for the same questions you are asking and the answers are sometimes... quite unexpected .. good luck )))

good luck for your big day )))

Thank you @Bronswan your support means a lot to me as I feel so lost in the storm I am riding out totally alone. It feels so unfair to me. I think the woman I love does not realize she has a 30 years head start in dealing with the feelings she has. I have been thrown in out of the blue, on a...

@Junebug. I never means to be hurtful and genuinely thought I was doing the right thing. And you right small town syndrome did probably not help.

It is tough, it is so tough to lose a woman you so dearly love but who keeps telling you she feels unsafe with you....

I seem to have lost my GF trust. We were together on and off for 2 years before she was diagnosed with post sexual abuse PTSD. As many above I do not mind not knowing the details of her assaults. I thought she would just tell me when she is ready to do so. I know there were 4 of them...
