A Military Spouse.......Is it too late?

[FitChik]

I am going through my first deployment with my H and I don't know how y'all do so many! I am very independent and do fine by myself. But I have no children to worry about!! It takes a very strong, confident woman to do that.

I am sure the mission they carry out lends them to denying feelings.... as in combat they have to. But I know many soldiers who struggle to re-connect after their deployment is over. They stuff it all down and never release it - which causes many more problems in the future.... but it's how a lot of these soldiers cope. I also understand why the D rate in the military is so high.

I can also relate to losing your best friend w/o warning! Ouch!! I know why you feel betrayed. It is an awful, horrible feeling.

Do you have any other supportive friends or outlets? Have you thought about counseling? Get back to the doc for some new meds! A good night's sleep will help out immensely... for both yourself and your family.
