Each and every person who posts, or responds on here is worthwhile and loveable. Reading many of these posts is a heartbreaking experience.

Experiencing CPTSD through my last wife, I have found that the experience is both horrifying, and confusing to me. The initial traumas which have labelled you are just evil. The continued mental abuse from your affliction is what confuses me.

Please don't take this as any sort of criticism. I'm truly confused about it, and I am trying to be in a better position to help those around me. I have many friends who have CPTSD, and I have witnessed them do some horrible things to themselves, and their families.

I have seen friends just up and leave marriages. I have seen friends tear into themselves to the point that I have been terrified they were ready to self harm.

As I have said in my previous posts, I am not a mental health professional. Just a witness to the symptoms of other people's poor behavior (the initial cause of the trauma, not the survivor), who truly wants to help.

Let me end with this: Each of you are beautiful people. Each of you are worthy of love and respect. Each of you are one more precious life. And each of you is deserving of happiness.
