Hi Nicolette
May be I didn't word my post quite right , I didn't mean I was being ignorant , just my lack of knowledge at the start made me do or say things that weren't helpful at all , because I didn't understand what was happening or what was causing it. I am human I make mistakes , I am learning all I can at the moment to help me understand PTSD and Depression, then when he is ready to talk ( if he is ever ready ) I will be better armed to deal with it, I am just taking each day as it comes at the moment, only time will tell what will happen in the future , right now I'm hanging in there, yes i have bad days but I then have to rationalise those and remind myself that my bad days are no where near as bad as his.
I do hope things work out and in time the situation bewteen us improve but I also realise at this point in time he needs so space for himself, as much as I want him here emotionally with me I know i cannot push that right now or will only push him further away. |
