[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Hi OP. So sorry you are going through this mess. It is indeed heartbreaking and traumatic. Your description of having PTSD caught my eye, because it is an apt description of the feelings and symptoms I had when I was living with and then splitting from my mentally ill partner. I hope you are able to work with a good psychologist who can help guide you to deal with your own trauma from this as well as educate you about your partner's likely illness and how to manage him. That person should also help you focus on how to structure your own life so you can create an environment in which you and your kids thrive even if things deteriorate with your partner. [/quote] I'm not the OP, though I am going through a similar situation in that I'm contemplating leaving a mentally unstable spouse. Wanted to say thank you for the above (sometimes, people on DCUM can be helpful).[/quote]
