PTSD can be a very hard illness to deal with, even if you are the watcher, not the sufferer. For families it could be very upsetting because part of the illness is sometimes losing touch with the present moment (dissociating) and due to the high anxiety of the condition, they may sometimes feel like others do not want them, or that they may feel guilty they are making things worse, and could result in trying to push people away.
Close relatives to the PTSD sufferer must continue to support them through this hard time and if it gets worse, definitely urge them to seek professional help.
