Shout out to you who stick by your loved ones when they are at their lowest.
Shout out to you who remain strong even when they are falling apart.
Shout out to you who may feel scared for your loved ones during their flashbacks, disassociation and painful memories but stay right where you are and wait for them to come back to you.
Shout out to you who pray silently that their flashback will end and they can hear YOUR voice again.
Shout out to you who stand beside them during the storm if fear and emotional melt downs. A silent but steady presence, a warrior guarding their loved one’s body as they fight the scariest battles on the inside.
Shout out to you, who loves without wavering. Who tries to understand, who asks questions to learn how to help and listen to what your loved one says so that next time, if you can give them any help you are available.
Shout out to those who know that what they are going through is NOT YOUR FAULT. That you know that you are needed and wanted, even when it may not seem like it.
Shout out to you who learn and look for triggers and do your very best to keep your loved one safe.
Shout out to those of you who are learning to be better. Because what hour loved one is going through is hard and scary and they may feel that they are very unsafe.
Shout out to all of you who won’t allow the stigma of PTSD define your loved one. You know they are survivors fighting baffles over and over again. You are making your loved one feel safe.
Shout out to you who don’t see your loved one as crazy, or melodramatic. You fight along side them. You have their back.
Thank you for holding on. Take care of yourself so that you can help them. Build a support group for yourself. Remember to eat.
Don’t give up on them. You are priceless.
