hi,

i suffer from divorce ptsd. i suffer from chronic migraines, nightmares, instantaneous crying, depression, suicidal tendencies, chronic stress symptoms. the thoughts wont go away. i am in a constant threat state due to ongoing actions of the ex wife etc...i cant see the kids, nor be in their city where the divorce happened.

i will appreciate any suggestions for readings or literature that might help me overcome these problems, as i cannot afford professional therapy where i live.

thank you.

I hope others are able to offer you some advice, I myself am not seeing a therapist or counselor, but I did want to come here and voice my support. If you ever need to talk I'm here. Do you have a good support system around you, friends and family you can talk to?

Support groups are helpful. Praying.

So sorry, skip. I've been through 2 divorces with PTSD, and it severely triggered my symptoms for a year of crisis following each time. I wish I knew of a book specifically directed at the intersection of divorce and PTSD, but I don't. I did check out the divorce and breakups support group here on Daily Strength, though. They may have a suggestion. Here's their link:

Much support to you in the meantime.
