Dying is the easiest way out. It can't all be that bad, can it? Just remember this quote:

That which does not kill us, makes us stronger. (Nietzchke)

Man Tennessee stud, how you talk. I had to go back and check but you just deployed back to the middle east. I used to get that way myself when uncle sent me traveling . Sucks huh? You are just normal buddy. Just keep in touch with us folk back in the world. I was worried when I read your post but I'd be more worried if you weren't unhappy. A lot of us know how you feel. There are some folks on this board who are my age that are going through the same thing.

When I was deployed I swore that when I got home I would sit in a damn rocking chair for the rest of my life on my front porch. Robert is right. It will make you stronger.

Keep us posted.

clt I guess all I can say to you that has already been posted is that you have to be strong, have your head up no matter what happens, and I would like to share this little quotes with you that have helped me through difficult times....

"When you come to the end of everything you know,
and are faced with the darkness of the unknown,
Faith is knowing one of two things will happen:
Either there will be something solid for you to stand on,
Or you will be taught how to fly..."
(Sorry, I forgot the author)

"Our scars have the power to remind us that the past was real..."
(this one is from a movie, Red Dragon)

Be strong and if I can be of any help, please let me know

When my father I died I felt much the same as you (I was 12 and we were very close). On older family friend said something that has always stuck with me since that time. "It is always the darkest before the dawn". I have seen the darkness many times. Destroyed personal relationships, long deployments away from home, drug and alcohol abuse (serious). Many times I felt that I, and the world for that matter, would be better off if I was out of the picture. I always managed to pull through it though. With the help of friends and faith, I managed to see the dawn. I have found that what cannot be remedied must be endured. Find someone close to talk to. A friend, a chaplain, a counselor, anyone. Often things are not near as bad as you think when you have a chance to think it through. I'll pray for your strength.

clt, it sounds like maybe you have a lot of stuff going on in your life right now and maybe you feel you dont have much control over some of it. Everyone is quoting, and here is another good one: Life is what happens when you're making other plans. Boy that has happened to me so many times, but I struggled through it and came out better in the end. I like to look back and think that I wasn't a victim of my own life, but more a survivor. I have found that this is a good place to vent when I have things on my mind. Everyone is willing to listen and empathize, including myself. I didnt see the post about your deployment, but I feel for you. My husband has been gone since October, but in one month he will be getting on a plane to come home. Even though it is only for a few weeks, and he will have to go back, I cant think about that part of it or I wont be able to enjoy him while he is here. I hope you just have a bad case of the blues and hopefully we can help you work through them. Chin up sailor.
