Which is why acknowledgement of depression with the PTSD is important. Not to tiptoe, but to recognize, hey, not getting that job hurt. Don't say stop crying, say let it out, you'll get through this. Being your soulmate, it's expected for him to be your best friend. If you were a guy, if circumstances were ideal, wouldn't they grab a few pints, together, and set up a gameplan?
Have you told him how you are feeling yet, or waiting until after therapy, this week?

I told him when he said it how I was feeling, which is why I really think he's just tired of hearing about it. I will say this much, the next time he tells me to stop crying or whatever, I may just go all PTSD on his ***. I have always avoided doing that because I don't think it's fair to take it out on him or anyone else for that matter, which is why when I am having a bad day, I go off by myself until I get over it because I don't want to hurt anyone - not that I actually believe I will, I just don't want to take that chance.
I'm very sad to hear that you have MS. I know we all have our crosses to bear, and sometimes I have to be reminded to get off of my pity pot.
