Supporter New Here, Husband With Ptsd Wants To Leave Me

Welcome to the forum. I'm sure you have read some posts and no longer feel alone.

My first post, I got a...

Thanks for your Reply. Glad to read that your marriage is still alive, gives me hope! :)
The nights and mornings are the worst time of day for me. Waking up in middle of the night or early in the morning in an empty bed. Throws me into reality. And then I worry so much about my husband. Cry over me and cry over him and cry over us. I havent cried as much ever!! . Dealing with this alone is awfull. It is good to know I am not the only one, to read all the posts and replys. I take hope from that. My husband is a strong man and normally very grounded. I am certain he will overcome this, he will learn how to deal with it. Hope I can say the same in a year as you did: that my marriage has survived the ptsd. I must have faith. Faith in our love which used to be strong. I think he fellt left down for longer periode then i first thought. That the ptsd started way before januari. His first wife left him, so perhaps he armoured himself against that pain. I dont know.
I will buy the book When someone you love suffers from ptsd. Hope to get more insight.
Thanks for your hug, I need it....

@Jolandamariette Welcome!

You need to keep your focus on your health and on y...

Reading: you did nothing wrong, gave me some relieve. I question myself all the time. What if I did this, what if I didn't do that then he would not have to leave. I blame myself for him to leave, leave me, leave our son. My friends tell me it is not because of me. That it would have happend anyway. It is not about me. But inside I blame myself all the time and that makes me so sad! I have to stop this. Dont know how.

I understand your pain. I still have days I cry. But if you can seek therapy for yourself. It can definitely help with some of the hurt and frustrates your feeling. If you ever need me, just pm ok.

I have an intake in two weeks for me. Waiting time was four weeks. Long time. But not as long as he has to wait for help. Crazy.
