OH my! This is a very hard area to "be of help" in! I lived with my (now ex) wife for 16 years as she struggled through PTSD related to sexual abuse. Unfortunately, it didn't go well, and she transferred her hatred of men onto me. The only lessons I learned dealt with realizing what sort of things or activities triggered her memories and tried to avoid them. Again,unfortunately, that finally came down to ANY sort of sexual activity between us! I wish you luck and hope that your relationship doesn't fall apart as a result of the stress.
