| | 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. |  | |

You have a marvelous sense of humour Rob, and your friendship to Evie has been so wonderful for her, you have no idea. I am delighted to know she has helped you in a similar fashion. |

Hi Nugget,
I like your humor. You sound familiar- that's why I'm writing to you.
Please help.
My boyfriend has ptsd. He survived something very tragic 6 years ago.
He is the sweetest man in the world with a great sense of humor, but our relationship has been falling apart since he started therapy in . May he's doing some EMDR, and body work. I support his therapy totally. He started the therapy to help our relationship, but we seem to be falling apart. i want to help him as much as i can, but he is starting to shut me out. He feels like he's going crazy.
I keep looking for books to find out what I should do. I've ordered stuff on amazon. I don't know if you know if any sites, books, or people who can help me. You said your wife was a tremendous support- did you guys go through anything that I'm describing. I just want him to get better.. but i don't want to lose him.
Can you advise in anyway?

Hi Jodie,
I'm nugget's wife, Jodee. My first piece of advice is that you must make sure that you see someone to help you deal with what is going on with your situation. Believe me, it helps!
You are off to a great start by trying to learn as much as you can. Come on over to the carers section, we are a friendly bunch!
Take care of yourself & hope to hear from you soon! |
