Hey Warriors, I come to you today humbly and thankfully for this organization. I served 13 years in the Army specifically Infantry, Hooah, yeah Hooah, that’s what I thought. SSG King got out of the Army in April of 2016. Life would be great….life would be relaxing…..life has been hell. I have searching for that purpose, that belonging, that brothership. Relationships started failing, friendships started failing, life started failing. I found myself waking up reaching for that bottle for my comfort, and trust me it did for a hot minute, then I started hearing about the shit I was doing. I joined this group at my lowest of low. I was messaging Andi throughout the night, she didn’t know I was writing my goodbye and explanation letter….Knock knock knock jasper pd welfare check. Let me tell you guys something if this stranger Andi hasn’t cared enough, I wouldn’t be here…..I spent 6 days in the hospital to realize I’m not fucking crazy. Life is a bitch and us military folk are formed for turmoil. Thing is, we have to transition out of that, life isn’t always turmoil and if we always expect that all our relationships will fail. IGY6
Part 2:
Well, I’m not ashamed to post this. I had a really bad night the other night, and someone had the local police come and do a welfare check on me. Needless to say I spent 6 days in the hospital and for the first time in over 3 years I feel good, I feel normal. Yes it took some medication but now I feel like I can take this world and flip it upside down instead of it flipping me upside down. For all of you who prayed, commented and cared thank you very much. I’m back!!!
