When I returned from Iraq in the year 2008, I, like most veterans who thought that everything will be good. I tried to take myself to work and rebuild their lives, trying to not focus on its deployment. This worked for a while, but eventually I pushed the people who loved and who cared about me. October 2008 my PTSD. I stopped to chat with their friends from the air force, stopped going to work. I totally isolated myself and tried to commit suicide, when in fact I had to ask for help. I went to the VA, which is located in the North of Chicago, where they had one of the best PTSD treatment centers in the country. I was lucky enough to have taken the treatment there. I would like to say thank you SMSGT. Cox , all my family and friends for help. Now I made a good career in the Marine Corps, as well as help their comrades from the air force, which has still not recovered from this annual deployment. To my great regret there not so much, but all the same, suicide is not a solution to the problem! #22aday #ptsdawareness #stopveteransuicide #stop22 (at Bagram Airfield)
