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.

Default Wife has PTSD
Names Adam and I am married to a wonderful lady who has PTSD. We live in Virginia about 65 miles from Washington DC. She has been battling PTSD for years now. I have stood by her thru great times and not so great times. She is getting help but we both need a place where we can "meet" people who understand the hellish things PTSD can put you thru. She too has joined the site. Her name is TheDeepestScar. Feel free to ask most anything to get to know me better.


Adam

Welcome aboard, Adam. I love seeing the team efforts here. My hubs is a very rare occasion here, but hope you meet him. He has a total of maybe 15 post compared to my 3000 + ... But he is a very strong supporter and I think seeing more strong supporters would bring him here more often. Good for all around as many carers could see it is OK to try to grasp our disorder and it is not a sin to hold us up when are unable. Again always good to see a member really behind the person with PTSD as it certainly is not easy. Takes a helluva strong back.

Welcome to the board! It is so wonderful to see the team effort you and your wife are putting into dealing with her PSTD. My husband has always supported me, but during the last month, we have really come together. It is AMAZING the difference it makes.
