I live with my boyfriend who just came home from Iraq, i noticed that certain things have changed about him and I'm pretty sure that he is suffering from PTSD. He is having mood swings and has a bad temper. The other night he freaked out on me and told me that i had to get rid of all my stuff except 5 pairs of clothing and keep only what i need to live...... when i asked him why he said that everything else would be too much to carry.... and he refers back to when he was over in iraq and only needed a small amount to live......... I'm not allowed make-up, jewelry or anything like that. i got rid of my stuff to make him happy. I want to help him but I'm not sure how or what not to say, this was his first deployment and this has never happend to us before. what should i say or avoid saying what should i do to help?
