What do you do to stop yourselves
Relationship Stress / by vlostwithyouv

...See more So hi. I have a partner who has PTSD due to serious DV, borderline, bipolar, pretty much you name it she's got it, she had a bad child hood, and I'm the only one in her life that loves and cares for her, but my god does she still have her moments. Days spent in the car kicked out, weeks round a friend's, dinner thrown over me, all because the wind has changed... I have to wait until she wants me back, she becomes totally unapproachable, and refuses to speak to me. Which is pretty hard on me MDD.. So I'm being mentally abused by the woman I love, and I forgive her because, I understand why. Just had a month with no contact and it dãmned near kîlled me, because I'm an emotionally dependant little sausage. What I want to know is, have any of you come up with ways to stop hurting the ones you love. I'm currently trying to get her to do a book of her very basic thoughts that she will not disagree with, a tome to consult in the bad times, apparently it's harder to disagree with yourself in black and white so to speak. But what else is there? How do I help her? How can she help herself? Real world ideas please, not mentioning counseling and drugs, or hormones, got that covered. I'm looking for life hacks, I'm looking for writing stuff on your favourite bra, what's helped you, how have you made it through, what's made the dent in your mind. What's your secret.. Thanks in advance...
