I just received angry hate mail from my ex three months after I broke up with him. I woke up to this this morning and now I just feel broken. I can't focus on my work and I've been shaking all morning. How do you get through being told you are a horrible person? Especially when you are busy fighting with having been told this your whole life on top of a litany of symptoms. I feel shattered. He already made me feel ashamed of my ptsd symptoms and told me they were manipulative when we were together. I feel like disappearing forever.

How Do You Get Through This?

I'm sorry you are going through this and I hope and pray things will get easier for you.
Here is the thing: PTSD is real and if you struggle with it you know this so don't let ANYONE judge or belittle you or accusing you of being manipulative because what you experience is sounding like a real flashback and you can't help it. The thing that might help is reminding yourself that it is a flashback and that you are safe now and it will go away. Like a panic attack you wont die and you'll be fine once you realize that your memories or thoughts can't physically harm you in any way (unless you're suicidal and then you should call 911).
Please don't kill yourself because your family and friends will miss you and I have lost my friend to suicide and know what it's like. It's horrible for everyone involved and you'd hurt and burden your family and friends more if you'd just "dissapear" and end your life so please, please don't do it and get help if you feel you are suicidal. The only thing to be ashamed of shouldn't be your mental illness it ought to be if you wont fight to make it better and give up on life because that's never a solution- Just a selfish way and hurting everyone who loves you in the process.

Literally, do not open anything from him. Even if he were to repent, so to speak, would you really want to be with him? Delete, rip up, whatever. You are far better off without anyone who makes you feel this way. You are worth so much more.

The guy is a jerk but were your actions manipulative?
