Relationship Not Everything Is Ptsd

[OrangeJulius]

If you feel you are being treated badly, you probably are and it may have very little to do with PTSD. I know it's hard but you can't ignore your own needs and feelings and call it being supportive. You will end up worse off then the person you are trying to support.

Ain't that the truth! My boyfriend, well ex boyfriend now, wasn't treating me well so I broke it off with him. He came back to me begging for a second chance and really seemed to change. It eventually became clear that that was not the case and I had to break up with him again. It was hard, but not as hard as I thought because it was also a very liberating thing...to not have to worry about him anymore and constantly reevaluate if I'm getting everything I need too. Sad, but freeing too.
