Need it all to stop
I’m so tired, physically and mentally. The last 4 years I’ve been going
at 100 miles an hour, until early this year when I went from 100 straight to 0. Now I can’t imagine the life I was living
before. I don’t know how I did it. Adrenalin and sheer willpower I suppose. Now
there is nothing left. Trying meds…

About half the world's population are not wanted children (U.N.) Others are unwise arrivals to parents who cannot parent.

Lost ?
Having been taught to 'deal with it', 'suck it up' etc, even now I still find it hard to say i'm struggling - but I really genuinely am. It's just one of those days, nights, weeks that I can't find any way up or even want to. I'm on a lot of veterans groups but there is so much going on between them, I just don't trust…
