Supporter New Relationship, New To Ptsd

[Maryhall330]

I really want to be supportive to my boyfriend, who has served through 3 tours and is retiring after 27 years in the National Guard...

As you can tell, neither one of us is in the younger bracket. We have only been together about 1 year.

Thank you,
Mary

Hi Maryhall330,

I have just been on the forum 2-3 weeks, and I have found a lot of information here. I am a sufferer and a supporter. The book section has some good books about PTSD too.

Welcome, and I hope you find the support that you need so that you can support your boyfriend!

Hi Mary, Welcome to the forum!:)

Read everything - especially the stickies at the top of the forums. They are full of information that you will find invaluable sooner or later... and then read posts - new, old, etc.

Wishing you and your fella peace and healing.

I am a sufferer. My partner doesn't know how to to deal with my emotions but hopefully through this site I will be able to find something to help me. To be a supporter I would imagine that it isn't easy either.
