PTSD monster

Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.......................it's a monster that's very hard to tame........it leaves for a while, but is always there, lurking...........

I don't know what set Max off today, he came home and told me he had been crying at school "because he missed me" The rest of the afternoon he was on top of me, constantly telling me he loved me, he misses me, etc.
At bedtime he started crying and even though I went in there a 100 times, holding him, rubbing his back, he would not calm down. Crying hysterically, until he finally fell asleep.

It is so unfair.......................and I feel so powerless.........if only I could make it all better.

This breaks my heart for you and for Max.

I am so sorry that he has to go through this....that he had to endure all he did.

Praying for you all
