Partner confronting trauma
Looking for advice, encouragement, success stories, or even reality checks. Has anyone had experience being in a relationship where the other person becomes emotionally unavailable to you after becoming aware of their family trauma trauma (ie. Being raised by narcissistic parents)? How did you stay resilient and patient to support them? Did anyone come out stronger on the other side or have a partner who worked through their trauma?

It is hard to compare each person has different levels of trauma or issues to deal with
but spouse has very slowly dealt with items .............. sees he has had a hard time because of a weird childhood.
Being patient is hard and i although want him get past it ... my spouse feels it is a get out of junk free card that he did not learn positive ways to express his emotions and such. i want to say it is ok to a point but bad childhood card is worn out.
