He finally talked to someone! - PTSD

Treysgirl · 04-17-2008, 12:22 AM

I'm so proud of DH. He had a post-deployment interview thing and he actually talked to them about the problems he'd been having with his temper and how that was affecting our marriage. The guy he talked to told him that he had symptoms of mild PTSD. I'm so happy that DH realizes he's been having a rough time and didn't internalize it like he's done in the past. Since that day, he's done a complete 180. Our relationship is as good as it was when we first got together
