Hi Jody,
I'm not a doctor but I can tell you that
traumatic stress disorders (such as you would
seem to have) are definitely treatable, with
supportive counseling and sometimes also with
certain medications. I think your first priority
is to start getting this kind of support--if
you are not sure where to turn, you might consider
contacting a local women's crisis center or
similar group by telephone. Hopefully, some
action has been taken so you don't need to
needlessly worry about your husband too.
Unfortunately, I'm not sure I've heard
anything about "Ganzer's syndrome", but what's
probably most important now is just to find
a setting where you can start putting your life
back in order again. You've obviously been
through a lot, but things can and will
get better! Best,
J.D.
