Notices

Welcome to PTSD Forum. Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a life threatening, debilitating disorder that can break down a sufferer’s body through anxiety and stress. Further it poses a significant suicide risk resulting from the brains neurological imbalance and chemical depression. Sufferers often live in denial, thus this community is aimed at helping PTSD sufferers help themselves through others experiences, guidance and education. We are here for the sufferer, spouse and families surrounding PTSD. Spouses and family are too often forgotten in this equation, and often they receive all the worst that PTSD has to offer. If you're involved in any way with PTSD, get registered and help yourself now.

Non-active members will eventually be deleted. If you are not a sufferer, carer or someone within the mental health industry, and active, then there is little reason for you to be a member of this forum. Non-active members with zero posts are deleted periodically during the year.

Thank you Kerrie-Ann for your internet shoulder. Mine is here for you and all who need it. It is the best help for me short of a miracle.

I have experienced disbelief in my husbands words also. Makes my head spin around sometimes because the words are like knives. The bad thing is that he often doesn't remember what he says. My heart went out to you regarding the cat jumping on you during your pregnancy. I sure hope all is okay with you & babe and nothing has happened as a result.

Things have turned better today after a little chat we had the other night. I really didn't even have to put kicking boots on (maybe kicking slippers). I know this is only a reprieve but I'll take it. It's nice to relax a bit.

Hope you are well and things are going as smooth as can be. Thanks again friend.

desert4now,

good that all you needed was kicking slippers but keep the boots in reserve. They really do need it sometimes. I am glad that there is a lull in the battle for you. It is nice to be able to take a deep breath and relax. It does get better with time and not as often now I am walking on eggshells. Improvement comes, like everything, with a price and a lot of hard work. Its good to talk to you. Take care, chat soon.

All,
Things are still going well. I try not to wait for the "other shoe to drop". I'm trying to suck up all the good and not worry about "what if".
Thanks all.

That is a good positive direction D4N, "not worry about what if!"

You will still have arguments and normal marriage issues, but you can do it without the PTSD influence, or very little influence if your BOTH willing to try. Well done... as you can see, both efforts are being rewarded.
