I haven't been posting as much as usual... and I'm not quite sure why. Perhaps it's because my days have been quite boring lately, and therefore, I lack inspiration... but I think that it actually has more to do with my recent disconnect with Dh. It has often been my strong feelings surrounding this situation that have inspired many of my posts, and now that I am without them, I am feeling at a loss of words.
In the research I've done concerning PTSD, many articles stated that the spouse of the person suffering from PTSD will sometimes take on some of the symptoms her/himself. Although I am completely hypothesizing, or possibly even "psychologizing" myself, I wonder if I am starting to have the same "emotional numbness" symptoms that he is having? Or maybe I am just in a new stage of grieving the potential loss of my marriage?
Either way, I wonder, what the heck is up with me?!

About Me
- Hope
- I am 26 years old, and I love life...most of the time : ) I love cooking, reading, camping, hiking, and other outdoor activities. I also love to laugh!I have been married for five years to my husband, all of which he has served in the military. He has attended two 7 month "beach parties," and we are now living with major PTSD issues. I relate this experience to an invisibility cape because it is as if the husband I know has disappeared. PTSD has also changed his perception of me. I hope this blog will serve as a source of support for others, and also for myself : )
