They could've worked on a better acronym...
I've suffered from PISD, a type of PTSD following infidelity for ten months - basically since DP confessed that when we were first seeing each other he got drunk at a wedding and ended up in bed with somebody else, then saw her another couple of times after that. It was early days and I feel like a reaction as severe as I've had is ridiculous and embarrassing, but I'm glad it's been identified as PTSD now so it can be treated.
Our relationship has grown into the most amazing thing, we're very much in love and he takes my problems seriously and is crazy supportive. I believe him when he tells me he wouldn't do it again, we're in a completely different place now, have a house, planning a family blah blah blah.
I've had counselling but think I need to look at something a little more 'medical'... I had a horrendous episode today and felt so low I didn't know whether I was coming or going, I don't want to feel like this and wish I could stop dwelling on it, I feel like I've wasted the best part of a year getting myself down.
I guess my question is this - does anyone else suffer from something similar or have you in the past, what did you find helped you, and does it get better?
Thank you for reading... I feel a little less pent up for writing it all out.
