Relationship Friend with PTSD vanished

[NKP]

My friend has recently been diagnosed with PTSD. In March he was in a serious car accident where the other driver sadly passed away.

I saw him on the 1st we had a nice meeting or so I thought. We were even intimate. I've known him for almost two decades now.

After I met him I went to send him a message and noticed he deactivated the platform we communicate on.

I am wondering if I did something wrong and if ill ever hear from him again. I'm feeling really hurt

I'm feeling really hurt

Understandable that you feel hurt.

am wondering if I did something wrong

Why would this indicate that you have done something wrong?
It's much more likely that this is a 'him' thing rather than a sign of a consequence of your behaviour.

if ill ever hear from him again

It's been a few days? And you have known him a long time. Can you put your experience of him over the time you have known him into the equation?
Has he gone silent before?
Have you been intimate before?
How is your friendship usually?

Why would you never hear from him again? Maybe that is a leap from the reality?

pologies should have written 1st of July. Yes, we have been intimate several days. Yes, he has gone silent occasionally in the past. I think it feels like it's over for good because he deactivated and I assume now his account has permanently been deleted

I dont have any advice because I am in a similar situation, I can only say that I understand your pain
Is the deleted account the only way to contact him?

I don’t think it’s for anything to do with you. People do things like that all the time. It’s not unheard of because they might have something else going on in their life unrelated to you. Try not to take it to heart and who knows, maybe they will get back in touch in the future

Personally, as a person with severe trauma. The person you are talking to more than likely has hit a wall with their pain to the point that either they isolated to avoid hurting you, isolated because they can’t handle their pain anymore or other reasons.

I know when I’ve been severely hurt by something. It take me down and taps me out. Depending on the severity of the event. In this case, causing someone’s death even by accident is very harmful to the brain. And guilt ridden. Like something you just can’t fix.

I know for me, when I’m severely hurt, I run away and get off social media because it reminds me of the lack of empathy in the world and lack of care towards my feelings. But something that causes guilt of harming someone, I can only imagine how harmful that would be to carry.
