Thank you for your service, and I'm sorry about how especially cruel your sitch is.
I'm past Chapter 3 of NMMNG, and I'm surprised how much of myself I saw there. I'm also surprised at how relatively un-controversial (at least to me) the book is so far--this could always change the further I read.
If I can offer some encouragement, you're not alone, and most of these tendencies can be worked on and eliminated (or at least reduced) fairly easily. Knowledge truly is power. I've been working on myself and I've already seen a difference in some aspects. You will too, in time.
