very good advice, it may be hard to understand PTSD if you don't have it. if your partner does, love,patience,and just being there is a big help for us that have PTSD. just remember to keep "yourself" safe and don't take on so much that you ending up draining your life. Ask for help from friends and family, or a community outreach center for caregivers. take time for yourself first or you will not be any help to your partner or yourself. best of luck.
