My wife has been diagnosed with CPTSD. From my understanding of it, this stems from abusive past relationships. I can state that a good many of her prior relationships have been abusive.
Since her diagnosis and subsequent therapy, her behaviors toward me have changed. She is overtly hostile, emotionally vacant, and not at all the woman I married.
Her therapist has begun EDRM (I think that's right) therapy, and it seems to make the issues worse. To the point that she went to my parents house, and left me alone for the holidays. I have never abused her, in any way. She will say that I am the most loving, supportive husband that she could ever want.
I don't want to lose her, but I am not sure how much more of this behavior I can handle. I have told her that while I understand that she sometimes needs space, she needs to understand that a marriage requires maintenance.
What is the best course of action here? I feel as though I am getting the consequences of all of her abusers while not having abused her.
I don't want to divorce her, but I am running out of options.
