I have been diagnosed PTSD former soldier of 25 years been out for 18 years suffer from depression anxiety and have mood swings hyper vigilant and sleep deprivation,which causes me to be moody.

Last month I had to leave the family house as I felt I was bringing my wife and two young kids down as well.

Finding my situation tough as I am also my wife's carer who is diagnosed Dermatomyositis and both of us found the situation unbearable trying to cope family life both being ill and the constant financial strain.
Both of us have asked for counselling but been ignored by our GP s trying to fix out our situation is proving very difficult indeed.

Any one been through a similar experience?

:welcome: George, I'm sorry to hear your going through a bad time, unfortunately I haven't been through a similar experience, but I'm sure someone else will write to you saying they have. Have you looked at online CBT courses, or maybe even medication?

I'm sure things will get better for you, have a great day :)
