Sufferer Found this forum after googling domestic abuse

Hi.
I found this site after googling domestic abuse, trying to figure out how bad my situation is.
I read an amazing courageous post.
I'm not sure I feel ready to post mine.

Welcome!

I got my ptsd from domestic abuse also. I still don't really like to talk about it. Maybe in time you will be able to post what happened. Baby steps are always good. :)

The fact about trauma is no two people in the entire world have the same one and I would dare say, kind of trauma. Every person's is as unique as the individual who has it. Your can't realy be very acurate at all if you put Trauma or PTSD into any kind of class system.
I have a very bad case of it. My wife of 23 years has a bad case of it. I have know many others that have it and I am very old so I have been around a good while. Comparing one to someone else's could only damage the other person and quickly start needless confict since its such a strong personal illness.
