Here I am already posting agin :D
Almost two months ago DB went through an episode. Not leaving the house, not interacting with the family. Sleeping all day and staying up most nights. Finally one evening he and my 12 year old were watching TV, she asked a question he got upset and was rude to her. I called him on his behavior so he got upset and went to spent the night with his mom. He was there the whole weekend would only have any contact with me if I would initiate.
He finally came home Sunday night and started sleeping in the extra room. We lived in separate rooms barely talking for about a week. Finally I sad down with him to ask what the problem was and all he says is I don't know. I asked if he even wanted the relationship and still I don't know was the answer. I told him I nor my girls could continue living the way we were and he should probably stay with his sister because I deserve to be with someone who knows if they want to be with me. So essentially we split up.
Now we seem to be getting back on track. He has finally been able to get a therapy session (after trying w/ the VA since Nov) and has started taking meds. This has given me a lot of time to think about the relationship and educate myself on PTSD as well as really start to focus on myself as I had gotten into a rut and was dealing with a lot of stress. I'm just wondering if anyone has gone through this kind of break before and how it ended.
