Christy, Welcome!

Now, this sounds very familiar. Stick around and read much from the Carer's section. Even ask questions if you have any. Read much, as well as, turn to and rely upon a power greater than yourself. IMHO, you will be needing this almost super-natural strength. Try not to fight his PTSD, it is what it is and acceptance seems to work best. However, acceptance of is in no way permissions to allow for any possible emotional abusiveness. Christy, take good responsibility for yourself, and hopefully your husband will do likewise. He is better equipped to honestly accept, own and confront his own PTSD, and any liabilities there from, than you are to do so. Please, take much good self-care, and only become this different person if you choose, but not against your will.

My best to you and your husband.


Hope
