    Pain And Ptsd

    They want to shut you down in favour of a ring knocker? You may not have a grad ring from some prestigious school, but you have something those educated do gooders never will. You understand. When will this world accept real life experiences as a valid education?

    Pain And Ptsd

    I have a person doing up an exercise plan for me. I really do need to start slow. Biking is not part of the plan. First off, this is Canada. Within a month we will have enough snow to close down most American cities. We call that flurries here. But more importantly, I can't sit for...

    Pain And Ptsd

    After 9 sessions at the chiropractor, I'm in better shape then I have been in years. No, not physically, mentally. To think that the pain has had that much bearing on my reality for so long boggles my mind. Oh, I still have anger, anxiety and all the rest. But it's focused now. To the most...

    Racism In The Military And Society

    When your lessons are being taught by the society that claims victim of the prejudice, and you are watching as the politically correct idiots fawn, it's hard to not fear. You speak of hate borne of ignorance. And such hate does exist. But not all prejudice is unfounded. To insinuate that we...

    Self Help Group

    Mixed here too. On one hand, you are asking them to build up the courage to call the number and then to go through that again when the meeting is held. On the other hand, you are displaying how confidential the process will be. 6 one, half

    Racism In The Military And Society

    It's hard to be racist against the guy that's watching your back Jimmy. That doesn't mean that you trust the civilian minorities though. And in the end, that makes you racist. I can excuse the trait by pointing to all the world events justifying my views all I want, in the end it's my...

    New Experiences

    I wonder why that is? We tend to work through the shit, and just as we can see the light at the end of the tunnel the crash starts. Don't give in. It's almost over.

    Are There Any Similarites

    Finally, truth in advertising. About time they stopped pretending and admitted exactly who they were.

    9/11

    I got wet last night. The pipes are still soaked. I'm hoping there isn't any permanent damage, but we'll have to wait and see. Along with the rain was one of the biggest light shows I've seen in years. A tornado touched down about an hour west of us. The winds weren't quite that bad where we...

    My Road To Here.

    Funny thing Johnny, if you listen to the stories of those who never served, it's surprising how similar their experiences actually are. They may have got here on a different path, but the beast is the same.

    9/11

    It's 9/11. I'll be piping in Fredericton today. This is the day where it all started for me. I'll be there with all the medals on, medals I earned revenging the deaths of 343 firefighters. They never got medals of course. Kind of puts those little bronze disks into perspective I guess. When...

    Ptsd And Marriage

    It sounds like it's a two way street there Russ. You both need to get some help. Marriage counselling may be the answer, but only if she's willing to accept that she is part of the problem. I know PTSD can be hard to live with, but her reactions are not helping. Staying in the relationship...

    Daily Reminders

    It seems to be a re-occurring theme to blame our nation for not being what we thought it was. But in truth, if you look around you, the people we associate with represent the ideals we hold dear. If you watch the ditch looking for your society you will find the lowest forms. But if you watch...

    Best way to make her happy is to get the help you need so that you can deal better with your life.

    Need Some Advice

    No one can make him get help until he accepts he needs it. Best thing for her? Find a safe place. Maybe that will make him admit he needs help.

    Tired Of People Asking.

    I usually point out how expensive day care is, and say that if I had to pay for daycare, wages I'd earn with my grade 12 education would be gone before I payed for the gas to get home from work.

    My Mind And Isolation.

    Morning Black. After a few outings around Gundi Ghar I began to notice that the locals all knew where the IEDs were. So maybe they didn't put them there. So maybe they didn't set them off. But they sure as hell didn't report them or try to stop us hitting them either. So don't feel bad...

    Trying To Be Grateful, And Failing.

    I have been talking the Jar in a private conversation already Jimmy. If anything, I think we are better off now then before. But I still stand behind the objection to deleting the posts. The resulting one sided conversation really makes me look like an overbearing oaf.
