I beg to differ.... its not about "intentionally" playing a game with you, it is through severe anxiety that you feel the ups and downs, which you likely perceive as playing games. I have done similar things before, I know many personally who have PTSD and have done similar things also within relationships. Its not because they wanted too, they just didn't know which way was up a lot of the time. When anxiety calmed you will likely see the rational them, when their anxiety is peaking you will likely see the not so rational them.... which can easily be viewed in a relationship as "playing games."
