@Shaz51 , thank you for checking 🙏🏻. I have been OK. Today I feel about a 6. We had a nice camping trip away but my husband came back to work stress and that triggered some negative reactions. I can see how his mood can change so quickly from one of silence to irritation and stress. I can see his cptsd coming out in unexpected ways like feeling targeted at a simple comment. I understand now that this non controlled response is that of someone who has emotional challenges and a mental health diagnosis. In an article about living in a relationship with someone with cptsd it said that it was important not to blame every argument on cptsd. I am struggling with this as I think most of my husband's negative reactions are to do with his cptsd and way of thinking because of it.
It's a daily struggle at times. I hope I can continue to hold strong for the 2 of us. I do call him out on his behaviour though and let him know quite sternly that his behaviour is not OK.
How are you and Mr Shaz? Do you have news from your tests yet?
Thank you for always being here ❤️
