Hi new here  and have never  been in contact with anyone with a similar situation. Long time ago my ex  came to my family home and horrifically murdered my partner in front of me . Just wondering if anyone has ever been through this type of experience? I just got on with my life. But now learning about cptsd it makes more sense to how I really got on with my life

Hi and welcome to OOTS Stern. I am so sorry to hear what you went through  :grouphug:

Do you have CPTSD  symptoms and have they become worse?  I ask because many of us can repress trauma for a time but it eventually leaks out and demands our attention.  Are you seeing a therapist?  Apologies for the questions but it helps give us some context.  :)

I can't imagine what that did to you. I'm so sorry.

Hi Stern and welcome to the forum.

I haven't been in that situation, but I want you to know that I read your post, and I'm so sorry that you went through that. :hug:
