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.

I hope he continues to be a little more human Jen! It must be difficult for you, however I am glad you are doing some things for yourself now.

Very good that he is Jen.... remember, it is up to you whether you enable his behaviour or not. Whether he likes it or not, he will more often change if you force him too in more indirect behaviours, ie. not enable his behaviour or allow him to hold you back from life. He will either feel left out, left behind or come to the party and begin helping himself. Amazing what love can do Jen..... even when it is at the lessen end of the scale.

I went with him to the docs yesterday and spent some time with the doc before Hubby came in. I told the doc about a few home truths that I am sure Hubby wouldnt talk to him about.
When hubby came in the Doc had a talk to him in his own funny way ( you know the Doc I am talking about Anthony)
He is a GP but I would rather him than a Pysch any day.
He has changed hubbys antidepressants for a month thats when he goes back to the Pysch.

I hope the change in antidepressants helps Jen. I have never been a huge fan of medication however the correct medication and dosage does seem to do wonders for some! Fingers crossed for you and hubby.

I guess if the tablets/meds work enough for hubby to have a change in attitude, and then perhaps he decides to make some changes, well it was then all for good...... Lets hope the tablets help!

Thanks Jim things are a little better between us this weekend. No change on his part at the moment I am trying to be patient but we are talking about things?

I hear you about the rattling Jen, my hubby is the same!

Just remember it takes a while for them to kick in so just keep an eye out for side effects.

Hope your health is improving & you are getting closer to playing on that golf course
