I has recently been suggested to me that I suffer from some form of PTSD from being married to an addict. Ironically, my AH suffers from it. He was in Beruit when it was bombed and saw combat back in the 80's/90's.

I've seen him freak out in a haunted house one year. It was full of smoke from dry ice and there was screaming and chainsaws going. It wasn't pretty.

Most recently, he woke up twice in the middle of the night with PTSD related dreams. The first time he grabbed my face (he cried because he thought he had me by the throat) and the second time he just punched me in the back. He didn't wake up or remember that.

Point is, I think there are alot of things that can cause PTSD and it probably depends on the person and trauma. A series of lost jobs probably could cause it too.
