I’ve been dealing with ptsd (x2) and cptsd for 5-6 years. And that was my first ptsd nightmare. I want to throw up. I feel disoriented. My husband’s been asking and I don’t want to tell him. I don’t want him to feel bad. (no it’s not directly his fault). And now I have to make breakfast. Well I don’t have to. Hubby would understand even with limited information. Just… Disorders, I have to (or maybe it’s just the way I am). I’m the wife I have to take care of him. (and no it’s not an abuse ‘have’ to)
Work around…. Just don’t tell him the worse part

I’m sorry you’re experiencing that. **hugs**
my god I can relate to having both ptsd from multiple occasions and then c-ptsd on top of it… it’s so hard to explain to people. “gUUhhh yOu cAnT hAvE bOth!!!!111”
tell that to my problems that act just like it but separately. HA! lol.
yeah, ive got ptsd from an incident back in school. i have ptsd from a more recent incident (which was the one that involved the nightmare). then i have cptsd from the abuse i got from my parents.
Sorry to hear this. Cptsd. Oh man. You too. That’s what my therapist called it from my mothers abuse of me. Cptsd is treatable but it sure took me about 7 years of weekly treatment to really start feeling like I was getting my life back. Wow it literally wires your brain so much to cope with it that a regular life is hard to live. It can be unwired over a good bit of time with regular visits, that is what I have found. Sorry this happenedto you, oh but that’s not all, you got the two incidents from 5-6 years ago too. Wow, awful.
