Don't walk away from the problem.

The person who has PTSD and the person who has to

live with the person, don't walk away from the problem.

Hang in there even if it's a battle.

Communication is the most important part of the puzzle.

It's to hang in there, to love them, to let them know

you're not going to desert them, and keep trying.

I hesitate to say hang in there because

I do not know to whom I'm speaking

as far as, if you're Veteran husband is abusive,

I can see why you can't hang in.

I have been blessed with two husbands who were not ever

abusive of me, personally, so that when I say hang in there,

I hope I'm coming across that you hang in there, if you can.
