Relationship Ptsd And/or Just Being A Total A-hole?

As a sufferer, I can't agree more with this. In a state in which you described, everything I feel, do, and say is irrational and I can't be rational. I just can't.

I'd say folding right now when he has no help isn't fair to him.

@lostforgottensoul This is EXACTLY what I needed to hear right now. Thank you so much for sharing your perspective as a Sufferer; it's invaluable to hear what's likely going on in his head, which would be impossible without Sufferers like you supporting Supporters by sharing your experience with us. :)

The situation with my sufferer has come to a complete standstill. Yesterday he asked me how I feel about...

@Hojay

Sending virtual hugs your way, I know this is a really shit time however all the advice given above is amazing! One time my sufferer was so hurtful during a phone conversation I put the phone down and asked him to give me five minutes ... I took some time out and did some breathing exercises. During that time he tried calling me a few times but I waited until I was ready. When I did ring he apologized for his behavior and said he shouldn't have said the things he did. This is small and menial in comparison but it shows that sometimes these techniques really do work.
