Be gentle with yourself.
It is OK for now, and be prepared for a rocky time when you make a connection with a T for things to get more distant and dissociative. It doesn't always happen but often does on the way to healing.
Be sure to ask for tools to use for grounding skills for they are some of the most important things you and your husband need to learn. Let him be part of this process if it is possible for you to do that.
If not have him do his own work to understand why it is so hard for you and that you are not deliberately shutting him out.
