RE: Living With PTSD A Love Hate Relationship

in OCD • 3 years ago

Hello lovely lady! 😊

Speaking from personal experience as both a retired ex-military member and spouse of one, that anyone that has gone overseas and seen the crud going on over there will have some form of PTSD, how could we not, it's traumatic if you're not mentally prepared for what you see/saw and nobody can be 100% mentally prepared for a lot of it.

Being a military spouse is not easy, the long tours of duty, the crazy hours when you're prepping for a field ex, parade, or whatnot...they all take a toll on the member and their families. I'm sure your fiancés grateful that he's been blessed with someone compassionate like yourself to help him get through it. Not every military member has that and those that do don't always show their appreciation for it as much as we should. If we're very blessed we get to work things out with our partners/spouses/families before they get too bad and we can recover over time together, that's what my handsome husband and I did and we're heading towards our 31st wedding anniversary in a few more weeks.

I wish you and your fiancé many, many years of blessings, little fights with big sessions of making up.

God bless you and your wonderful family. Have an awesome day! 😊
