I will go back and catch up on your backstory soon, but this was quite the intro.<br />I agree with Roller Dude, you are the "customer" when it comes to the therapist. Took me 4 I think to find one I gelled with. But they are an improtant part of your health care team.<br />Those little guys in the blue hats are the reason you were there; you and your brothers are giving them and their brothers and sisters the future they deserve to have. Never, ever forget that.<br />Blessings to you, and I am gald to be following you on your journey.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8255889363485225211.post-71907032214818018432011-02-09T19:45:00.177-06:002011-02-09T19:45:00.177-06:00Keep writing, talking to pen pushers who have no i...Keep writing, talking to pen pushers who have no idea what you're talking about may or may not help. <br />A few things that helped me BEFORE deploying...things I was taught at advanced police and police supervisor training. <br /><br />If you go talk to a shrink- and YOU don't like them or YOU don't think they are doing any good, then it's OK for YOU to find another one. Shrinks are like every other job, some are good at actually helping and some suck. <br /><br />I went to the VA to "chat" a few times...and they asked me to come back and help others. So I asked: "Does that mean I'm fine?"<br /><br />Yep. But me being fine after deployment was because of 23 years of being a cop and all that. I wish I could help other soldiers coming back more...<br /><br />A tip or two, never point a weapon at anything you love-- including yourself. That will never help and will hurt those left behind.CI-Roller Dudehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10850472230525879415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8255889363485225211.post-30706796952818200242011-02-09T19:33:59.168-06:002011-02-09T19:33:59.168-06:00Man mudpuppy, you scared the dueces out of me!!! ...Man mudpuppy, you scared the dueces out of me!!!

However, since AM requested her readers say something, I'm doing so.<br /><br />Your words brought me about as close to tears as I'll allow myself to get at work. And I am grateful.<br /><br />My oldest is in Kuwait today and though I'd bet his experiences aren't comparable to yours, I'm going to pass along your words of advice to him. Hope you don't mind.<br /><br />Take care of yourself... and keep writing.

And I am not qualified to tell you things or offer solutions as I have never been fired on, but the one thing they all say is to keep on talking about it. <br /><br />Nothing will ever go away, but, as you said, it can be less stressful and fearful. Keeping it inside is like cancer. Only time and dealing with your memories and terrors by talking or writing about them will make like bearable.<br /><br />But you know all this, so I’ll just set over here read.

It took 30 years to get me to a shrink, I had one that did understand and with a little pill each day I have made it to 73 years old. I hope you can do the same.Sarge Charliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03533766216808955625noreply@blogger.com
