Unbroken,

Her behavior as you describe it is very much PTSD when it is out of control. Everything and anything can potentially set off the anger. It is powerfully difficult to deal with it and ride out the rough spells. You are right that you should not allow yourself to be mistreated. It is difficult to set and maintain boundaries of acceptable behavior with a PTSD partner - it is a lot of WORK, actually. Sometimes, even if you have been with the person a long time, it is still difficult to look past the PTSD behavior and see the good person still there, struggling to find a way out into the open again.

I don't know how anyone could form a lasting relationship with a person who was in the midst of a down phase of PTSD early in the relationship. Your relationship is too new to make it through the months that it may be before it gets better again.

Perhaps you will learn and grow from this relationship. Perhaps it will not be wasted.

Best wishes to you,

Cowgirl
