General Trying Not To Resent

[Deleted member 1860]

Lots of :hug:s!

I know this isn't easy for any of you.... Focus on yourself, your kids and the dog. If he can't put himself out there for just a bit, then I say don't bother with him right now. yes, we may have PTSD, but sometimes we need to just push past our BS and be there for those who need us. Only when the sufferer is truly down and out is that an excuse. Otherwise, I think we owe it to ourselves and those that we love to push past our fears in order to TRY to be supportive in a time of need. (But hey, maybe that's just me....)

Oh, my dear, so sorry for your heart strain. I send you, and yours, peace and love. :hug: And I agree, your vet should've been a shoulder for you to lean on. Glad you have your family!

Thank you @Saetva and @Solara . It helps to know that other sufferers don't think I'm being an ass,

You are not being an ass.

You are managing a very difficult situation very, very well.

Dear @Sweetpea76, I saw your thread tonight. And although I wasn't able to answer, I lit two candles. One for your beloved companion and friend of 16 years, and the other one for you and your kids. My heart and thoughts are truly with all of you. - Sending gentle, comforting hugs your way, if accepted. :hug::hug::hug:
