 How sad!!! | |
I can totally appreciate what you are saying because I would be exactly the same way. Just leave me the f*ck alone!!!!!!! But in saying all of that....many others need not only medical attention but some human compassion, and to deny these people, who served their own country, I personally think is discusting and I real slap in the face for these heroes. Wow. I don't often post in the politics section but this thread caught my eye. Its really too bad that society in general doesn't treat and accept mental disorders the same as physical ones. There is undeniable an enormous amount of pain with ptsd and other fear and anxiety disorders.   Very sad to read but not surprizing.  Quote:

Just being in a place that I love without people would clean me out.
I also think that taking money for such shit could have crippeled me and I may not have recovered and I truly believe this, but I can't speak for others.
I also have never said any of this to anyone ever, although the wife being there knew of the terrors.
As for me I have never asked for nor wanted anything from the goverment except to be left alone. |  |
