My bf has Post Traumatic Stress Disorder...?

Question

How can I help him? I really want to be there for him but I have no idea what I can do to help.

Answer 1

What is it from?  Is it from being in Iraq?  Is it from a car accident?  Is it from being robbed?  You also don't say how old he is, so we cannot help you there.

If he truly has it and it affects his life, he needs to see a psychologist for help.  You cannot do it for him.  All you can do is support him when he goes to see the psychologist.

Answer 2

has he had an official diagnosis or come to that conclusion himself? Either way I'm surprised that he has been accepted onto army basic training - he is not a psychologically suitable candidate at this time. He needs to say something and get help.
