Can anyone tell me what concerns should i have with a partner with ptsd?

Loved one w PTSD.: People w ptsd may have emotional numbing or feel more distant from their loved ones. So - try not to take it too personally. Person may not want to share feelings, thoughts or memories about their trauma - don't take it personally. They may not feel comfortable going out for meals, to theaters, malls or other crowded places - don't take it personally. Never tolerate violence from one w ptsd.

Depends on severity: It depends on the severity of his symptoms. More severe symptoms would include flashbacks, bipolar disorder, nightmares, waking up from nightmares and being physically violent, adrenalin seeking, anger outbursts, emotional detachment, just to name a few.

Resource: Concerns depend very much on the severity of the disorder. A thorough assessment can determine the extent of the PTSD and make treatment recommendations.
