Could someone please offer me a little advice? My fiancee has just begun experiencing CHs after a 2-3 year period of freedom from the demons. This is the first time since I have been with her. What is the best thing(s) for me to say/do while she is in the midst of this? I see the fear and the pain in her eyes and yet she (obviously) does not want to be held/touched, and certainly should not have to hear "It will be OK" or "we'll find the answer", etc.
She often doesn't want ANYONE around. Is it best for me to simply offer to her that I am there, and to ask me if she needs anything or would like me to do something for her? Is there nothing more I can do?
Frustrated and feeling helpless...
