I recently found out that the person I was supporting (my ex, ptsd sufferer) shut down on me back in November, only to end up back at his ex’s home. I was completely devestated. I did everything this person asked of me when we were together, I made sacrifices, I spent money, I supported his illness, etc.
It was a major blow to find out that I wasn’t really loved and probably barely liked by this person. What does a supporter do with this type of discovery? Although I’m not as heart-broken as I probably could be, but I’m very disappointed to say the least. If I had known back then when I made the decision to start dating him, I would have never bothered.
I know that ptsd does cause one to misbehave, but I never anticipated this kind of behavior. Deceitful, lying, destructive and betraying.
