My husband & I work from home from time to time. Sometimes togetherness is wonderful and other times aloneness is wonderful - which I'm experiencing right now! I think this is true of all couples (wanting alone time) regardless of PTSD.

We have separate laptops and will work in separate areas but sometimes you really want the entire place all to yourself.

I think you have to compromise like anything else. If Anthony has had alot of recent alone time perhaps he could go for a long walk to give you an hour at home by yourself. It may even be good for Anthony to get kicked out of the house and have a change of scenery. I'm just thinking of myself here, sometimes I need time alone, but then it turns from time alone to simply getting lazy and not pushing myself to get out of the house at all. Not sure if this is the case here but thought I'd raise it.

Alternatively - a coffee shop or the library as has been suggested. Sometimes you may not need a whole day but just an hour.

Also I think in an ideal world all carers should be having time out to themselves getting a massage, manicure etc. You can easily lose yourself when caring for another.

If all else fails, I'm living in Melbourne so you can come to my house!
