Hi Renea, and welcome.
You have come to the right place for help. My wife and I have been reading posts here for over a week, and we have made great progress in dealing with our problems.
My wife suffers from PTSD, so I know what it's like being the spouse of sufferer. She has also suffered from bouts of anxiety attacks. I love my wife very much, and have been using that love to make it from day to day. But that can only go so far when you don't know what the heck is going on, and I must admit, it had been getting harder with each episode of outbursts. It has helped both of us reading how others experience the exact same feelings and situations, knowing that she isn't "going crazy", and that others are dealing with these same issues and making it!
I don't have any answers for you, as I'm learning myself. But I can offer you an ear, and also some empathy, as I know exactly what you are going through.
Again, welcome, and good luck. Keep your head up, and remember there is light at the end of the tunnel (and it's not always a train!)
