WOW. I just reread this thread. I didn't know why, I felt drawn to it until I came to this response. And it was one of those "YES!" moments. I'm finally understanding one element of my DH's PTSD - the deep seated fear that his PTSD will drive me away ultimately.
I'm really glad you shared that with us. You'll never know how helpful it was.
Now, I just need to figure out how to apply understanding into action ...
Ah yes, that on-going process!
