I'll tell you: I have depression, anxiety AND PTSD. I've had plenty of relationships and then eventually got married. My husband also periodically suffers from depression and anxiety. We're compatible because we both understand one another and our conditions also do not take over our lives. I am being treated because mine is more severe than his.
The key I think is to get treatment for your condition and to be taking care of your condition. Others don't mind so much as long as you're receiving treatment for it. It shows that you're taking good care of yourself by doing so, and that's what matters most in a relationship. It doesn't have to be a dealbreaker OR an impediment.
I know you're not looking or desperate, but I think it's faulty thinking to believe you cannot be loved or in a relationship because of your PTSD.
