Hello. I have been in a tumultuously dysfunctional relationship for 10 years now. My partner has CPTSD and has been asking me to educate myself on this subject. I am more of a "hands on" kinda problem solver who doesn't really like to delve into the "why" of things.
I finally started doing some research last week. I feel like I have opened my eyes for the first time in a long time. In my ignorance I have fuelled fires when thinking I was putting them out.
I am tired of being part of the problem and am intent on becoming part of The Solution.
I am hopeful that through the knowledge and experiences of others I can gain the tools to be the friend my partner has needed for a long time now.
Thank you to the creators of this site, and to you all for being here and for sharing.
