Supporter Hello From A Spouse Of Ptsd Marine Vet

[gemstone]

Hello...

I've been with my spouse for 10 years, married for almost 4. We have 3 children and are from Raleigh, NC. My husband was a grunt. He did 4 years and got out in December 11. Did 3 deployments, last one was extremely rough. Don't know how much detail I want to get into yet, but I guess I'm just hoping to find other spouses or vets in similar situations. Somedays are better than others, sometimes it's like walking on eggshells. I dunno...I'm in it for the long haul, but it's hard. I could probably write my life story in this thread, but I won't. :shy: Anywho...hi!

Hi, I'm not married to my vet, but I understand the eggshells comment and am new here myself.

Hi Gemstone,
I've just been dating my veteran for about 7 months so don't feel qualified to comment to wives of military vets...but I feel like I've been through bootcamp and back!

There is a "brother" website http:// that your husband might find useful. Non-military people can view it, but can't participate in it. It has really help me understand my boyfriend a lot!

Sincerely,
Dallas.
