Hi all it's been a while 😅 just a quick one, I've been in a rocky relationship with my partner who has previously been diagnosed with depression and anxiety. We always knew there was more but found it very hard to get a diagnosis as mental health support is very scarce in the UK. Anyway he has recently been diagnosed with complex ptsd aswel. My question is I have been his go to for verbal abuse for about 3 years now although never physical toward me except smashing my house up, he says he can't help it and it's his mental health. Is this a valid reason I've been going through this with him for so long now and he always says the same thing don't take it personally it's not me it's my illness. Is this a valid reason and am I being selfish for wanting to end the volatile relationship? Thanks guys any advice or similar stories would be appreciated x
