Hi Again - This Time For Myself

[Jan-pattern]

Hi guys,

I posted here last year about my then-boyfriend... in May, I walked away from that one as it became apparent there he was very much not-good for me.

Anyway, done a lot of thinking, and concluded I should really just pop in here a bit for myself. By fluke, an old pal got back in touch after 20 years in early summer and that's done some weird short-circuiting in my memory-banks, and one way and another I've spent the summer doing a load of, well, basically Coming To Terms with stuff that happened. My old pal's helped with some stuff, but like you all know, for the warzone stuff you need other folk who've been there.
I wasn't in combat, but was working as a civilian in a warzone, based in military bases and caught up in just a couple of very minor things, but with zero prep and zero debrief it scarred me, I now realise.

So, time to start to come to terms with it. Shit happens, and it certainly did for me then, and now I want to find ways to accept that and move along, instead of letting it keep on happening again and again. I know I can't make stuff un-happen, but I can certainly improve on what the current situation is...

Hi Jan.

Sorry to see you aint been on for a while. I guess you missed the "COMBAT VET ONLY" change that we had then.

Not to worry, It says it at the top of every page aswell, for those that missed it. Right next to the box that says.

Combat PTSD Forum is for Combat Veterans Only who have Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).

Spouses, family and friends in need of support can find such support @ PTSD Forum.

Anthony was real kind enough to put it up, I guess so we wouldn`t have to keep telling people ourselves. You know the sort of person the ones that miss the

because it is realy small, and leaves a lot to questions as to who is allowed to post here.

You need to go to the Link Removed site

So yeah it was nice having you here, and close the door on the way out.

Jan, keep in touch on normal email though. There is not enough of us to not stay together.
