| | 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. |  | |

As you all know, I have been less active on the forum as of late due to various family matters. However, I notice the Carers section is exceptionally quiet and I am wondering how the rest of you are? If you feel to, please share an update of some sort! |

Hello Kathy. Things have been busy on my end. We needed a new vehicle and took a couple weeks decide what we wanted, where to buy, etc. Completed the purchase this last Saturday (2002 Trans am) so, thankfully, that's behind us. I'm not sure if you read in my other thread, but my h is getting deployed again. I'm a little worried about how that will take it's toll but, of course, he's happy about it and I'll try to use the time I have with him to be happy. There will be plenty of time for worry when he's gone. On a positive note, my son has a hockey tournament this weekend and we're all looking forward to it! He's hoping to win the goalie award this time.
I hope all is going well for you Kathy and look forward to hearing more from you when you're able. Thank you for asking:) |

Oh, I am not certain I knew your husband was being deployed again Jolene. It truly creates a number of mixed feelings, doesn't it? My husband Jim is like yours in that he absolutely enjoyed going on operations. I believe he was born to it really. Though I will say, I am happy he is now retired - one less member of the family to worry about!
My boys also loved hockey, much good luck to your son for his tournament!  |

hubbys ptsd is stepping up a notch. i posted in my other thread, but its getting weird and crazy. we have been married over 6yrs, and he has been a NCO for almost 3. HE states he has to take care of his soldiers first, then himself. but, there are things here, at the house, that I cant take care of, such as his finiances. I am not allowed to touch them. he says he will take care of them but its been 3 weeks and i just feel like we are getting pushed back further and further. | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes |  Linear Mode |
