we were wondering about this cuz we never have got or found a clear answer about it.
Is it possible to have PTSD from years of Emotional abuse and coerced sexual abuse?
i may need to explian the 2nd one to make it more understandable.. if I need to just ask.
The reason i ask this is because we suffered these things for 8 and half yrs in ourfirst marriage. And it does seem to affect us still in our current marriage.
We often worry and get scared and very distraught over things that in our current marriage remind us of our 1st marriage.
Here is an example..
Our first husband.. say he lost the car keys.. he would yell at us blame us and make us believe it was solely our fault.
there was a situation when we first were living with our current husband..where we (him or us) lost the car keys for about a week.
One day he asked us to search the car for them. We spent probably about an hour searching the car over and over ..frantically.. and kept thinking we had to find them or he would yell at us and blame us.
We nearly had a massive anxiety attack walking back into the house to tell him we could not find them.
Even though, we knew deep down that the current husband would not react as the first did over the keys, it was an automatic reaction to be frightened that he may.
we have been with im for over 2 yrs now and married a bit over a year. and yet just last night.. when he was awake all night due to his insomnia and he went to sleep right after we woke up..sarah (one of our bunch) automatically thought he did it on purpose so he wouldn't have to spend time with us.
( the first husband would stay up all night long on the computer and chat with other women and come to bed when we had been asleep along time in order not to spend any time with us)
Is it possible this could be PTSD?
Thanks
SADIE
