Started Dating Again -- When And How Do I Share That I Have Ptsd?

[Glara]

As a supporter I wish he had told me sooner. He did mention therapy, but I didn't question... Lots of people are in therapy for lots of reasons. In my case he was someone I dated on and off in my 20s and we reconnected in our 40s. When we got involved again he came on really strong. I thought we had a future, that now I know it's never going to be what we planned. I'm still with him since he told me, but I've been going through a lot rethinking what we can be. He's going through a very bad time right now, that is scaring me. I'm not going to leave, at least I'm not ready to yet. I still know what a great person he is but it's been hard to readjust everything in my head and help him through what he's going through.
