From a member: Are there any spouses with secondary PTSD that can give me advice? I feel I cant be there to help my husband anymore because Ive completely lost myself in his PTSD. We fight all the time and our marriage seems to be headed towards divorce. I can not get him to take his meds and he is unstable. I never know what is going to set him off or trigger his anger and anxiety. I want the best for him. He deserves it. He is 28 and suffers everyday with physical and mental pain. He is such a great husband and father when he has his moments of clarity but 80% of the time he is insulting me, threatening suicide, telling me he regrets getting married, locking himself up in a dark room to be alone and he has started back smoking a lot. I want to help him but I feel completely hopeless in this situation. I can never understand how he feels or what he saw or did in the Kunar Province or Pech River Valley. Some days I feel like giving up and leaving because he keeps telling me how much he regrets getting married but deep down I dont think he means it. Im going to keep fighting for him and loving him but I just wish he made it easier. Any advice out there to help?
