Suggest Treatment For PTSD
My husband sufferers from PTSD and has been working on painting a vehicle for the past 7 years. He applies the paint, then takes it off. And is always busy working on his car. Important taskes are left on hold, because he wants to finish off the car. Continually he says it will be ready... Four years ago it was to be ready for a wedding, and he is constantly saying there is just a little minor problem and it will be ready. He is under a psychiatrist and I believe he also suffers from avoidance.

HI
Thanks for using healthcare magic
Definitely, he is in avoidance and that may be due to underline anxiety disorder. If he is taking any antidepressant, in that case, i think, he should consult a psychologist. He needs exposure therapy and exposure therapy would help him to control this avoidance. In case, he needs any help, you can ask us.
Thanks
