From people who came through it

  • โ€œA note for the next person. In 2022 I was exactly where you are. For me, left the army after 12 years. These days I mostly feel like me. You get yourself back in pieces. You're not on your own.โ€

  • โ€œYou don't have to have it all figured out. I don't. Some days I jump at a car door. But I'm still here. The VA is slow but I went. That was hard. If you can't talk to anyone yet, that's okay. Just keep showing up for the next thing. For me it was coffee and the crossword. Find your small thing.โ€

  • โ€œIf you're at the start of this, I won't pretend it is easy. The first few months were the worst of my life. But I am writing this from the other side, and some days now I forget to be sad. I keep a list of good days on my phone so I can see them when it is bad. Go slowly.โ€

  • โ€œReading this late at night? I've been there. I was right where you are in 2023. It was two tours and I couldn't see past it. Yesterday I booked a holiday. It doesn't stay this heavy. Sending love.โ€
