I havent got to read this till now and just want to say that i might have died and MOST CERTAINLY dh and i would not be together today if it wasnt for this site!
when i was at my lowest point in life-thinking dh was just a cold loser and jerk all of a sudden-not the man of 17 years i knew-this site helped me pull through, shared thier stories with me, let me vent, and UNDERSTOOD, what i was going through. they offered advice and or just empathy, and helped me develop the tools to understand what my dh was going through too.
this site with help from God and alot of praying helped my dh and me stay together.
I learned about boundaries and never, never, was I judged or did i feel negativity towards me from the group.
the past year i did not log on, I felt i needed a break to not think about ptsd and to just try to start rebuilding dh and I marriage. i needed the break and it was good for me. for days and weeks at a time i did not think of ptsd, until it came rearing out.
Now i am slowly getting back to the group, realizing that dh and i are still going to have to deal with PTSD...but I thank God that the site is still here and i can offer things to the newcomers too.
Bambi, I am sorry you feel this way, I hope you reconsider because this is the best group out there! I thank all of them for standing behind me in my darkest days
