Well, I have already come out with a whole bunch of stuff in the Relationships forum, but I figured I would say hi and do a short intro. I am an Air Force Combat Communications veteran. Been through our combat school where I was stationed (then continued to go through it as an agressor). Went through the combat school in Ft. Dix (the one they make you go through to deploy anymore). Went to Afghanistan once and deployed to Qatar once. Never saw any up close combat, but I got to watch one person get blown up by a mortar and then got to have another come close to blowing me up. Knocked me back and all that. The one that was close to me I only know about because I woke up in the clinic and was told about it. I went on a couple of convoys and saw some gunfire, but the Army that was in front of me always managed to take care of it. My PTSD issues are more mild than some, but at the same time, I think I have been holding a lot of things in and my anger and trigger switches have been growing over time. To date, I have not been able to get treatment of it. Doctors have been more worried about my heart. Or my seizures. Or my asthma. Or they just don't do anything about any of it (I really love military and VA docs). Anyway, that's it. Well, there's more to this puzzle, but I don't really feel like opening up that much yet.
