Supporter I'm Here To Support My Partner

[andy81]

My partner has been suffering from trauma for a while now, I feel I support her she says im supportive but im on here to see if there is anymore I can do for her.

I was left by someone who is only now getting help. He thanked me for whatever I said (not sure what he means and I bet this isn't uncommon with others) and he asked me to be his friend and it's so hard . It's obviously a much longer story .

Welcome @andy81, you will find a lot of information, as well as support, here for whatever that trauma takes the both of you through.
Browse around the forum and join in if you want to.
Your partner is lucky to have someone supportive like you are, and that is willing to learn what trauma is all about. Has your partner been diagnosed? In treatment?

Take care.

@andy81 Welcome to the forum!

Take time and learn all that you can about PTSD and also check out the supporter section. You will also need support as PTSD is hard on relationships and taking care of yourself is one of the best things you can do for your partner.
