If Jenn had known her husband's family before they'd gotten married, there might never have been a wedding at all. Now she has to confront the reality that her new family holds ignorant—and, at times, racist—views, and that spending time around them triggers her ingrained trauma of growing up Black in the U.S. Why is it so hard for her to speak out against their prejudice? And, more importantly, what does it mean that her husband is silent in the face of all this?

Many people believe grieving is only something we do when somebody we care about dies. But there are many other reasons why we grieve. Smaller but similarly serious sorrows can include the loss of a job, a broken relationship, unmet expectations, frustration or disappointment because of failure, and so much more. Two other subjects will also be discussed in this audiobook. The first relates to handling PTSD in your marital relationship. Another topic heavily emphasized in this audiobook, is what’s called “survivor’s guilt”.

How would you react if you were betrayed by your spouse? Everyone thinks they know… until they go through it. I was the same way.

In the end, however, every affair leaves one spouse who feels betrayed… One spouse who feels broken… One spouse responsible for choosing between forgiveness and separation — while simultaneously dealing with the ripple effects and judgment that create just as much pain as...

The simple truth is that PTSD can be extremely debilitating - not just for the person who has experienced trauma firsthand, but for their partners, as well. And while there are many books written for those suffering from PTSD, there are few written for the people who love them. In Loving Someone with PTSD, renowned trauma expert Aphrodite Matsakis presents concrete skills and strategies for the partners of those with PTSD.

From our earliest years, we develop an attachment style that follows us through life, replaying in our daily emotional landscape, our relationships, and how we feel about ourselves. And in the wake of a traumatic event - such as a car accident, severe illness, loss of a loved one, or experience of abuse - that attachment style can deeply influence what happens next.
