He says that he went through PTSD himself and that all he had to do was tell his thoughts to shut up and to let things go. He wants me to let certain things go in a hurry that he does, or things in my past it seems, and it seems like he just doesn't understand that some people take longer than others to heal. About a year ago in frustration, he told me to "Get over it." And when I bring it up today when he does something similar it angers/frustrates him that I haven't let it go. Sometimes it just seems like I can't trust him, and I wonder if it's the PTSD talking or if it really is him. We've almost been married for about a year now, together for two years. He says that now he will be there for me, but I don't know. Can I trust him or not? Should I stay or should I go? Reply to this Question Share |
