RE: Weekend-engagement 69: The say something week

Thanks mate, it has been a little difficult especially considering the method he used to exit life. We'll push on.

I only have a faint idea of what having PTSD can do to a person. But it sucks to lose anyone regardless of their exit from life.

I think we all had times when we were in a bad place and it is likely to happen again. It's the nature of life. The great thing is that you see it and are making the changed, made them and are on the right path now...Also better prepared for what may pop up.

Indeed. I think we all might have this thought of giving one's younger self a royal slap and getting some stuff together. I mean I'd totally do it for any version of my younger self; however, those mistakes and everything else is what has molded me into who I am. So, if I were to slap them, I'd have to do the same for me.

Sort:  

We need to go through things to understand other things; just the way it is. Slap yourself, but no too hard because making mistakes is part of learning.

And yes, PTSD isn't a nice thing, same with moral injury. I'll not share here how many I have lost around me due to these things but no matter the number it never gets easier.

Something like this.

And I reckon it'll never get easier.

Exactly like that.
