Back in Florida

[IDTANDY]

The last 18mo. has been a bit of a trip.PTSD bit me in the ass.Having dealt with others all this time, failed to recognize it in myself until I broke.There where many times postings on this site and socializing with the colony kept me somewhat grounded.Anyway I'm back in Florida and reunited with my wife;)

Thanks for being trusting enough to share this with us.

There are a lot of vets on this board so if you ever need to talk with someone who can relate just PM me and I'll get you hooked up with them. This assumes you aren't doing this already....if you already are good stuff.

Take care of yourself bud. Let us know if there's something we can do to help out.

I know where you're coming from brother. I was the same way from 1971 to 1995. Was to busy working ; taking care of family and being the protector as my psychologist called it. Up until it all built up to a volcanic eruption in my doctor's office. Luckily he asked the right questions and I was send to the V.A.

The wife stood beside me for all those years even though I was hard to live with. She said she knew I was trying to be good as a father and husband ; but there were demons in my past who sought control over me. She had to throw a pillow into and on my bed to wake me up as I once caught her and almost choked her to death in a sudden aroursal from sleep.

A good woman is worth more than all the gold on God's earth. I hope you & the wife make it through this trying time and if there is anyway I can be of help please let me know.

My wife stuck by through it all.I left because I was afraid I might hurt someone,not so much my familly,but all it would of taken was someone on the street saying or doing something to trip my trigger..I have a good support system.
Thanks
Andy
