A Changed Parent
As you guys have probally heard, a lot of soilders come back home as a changed person. They sometimes from a dissorder called Post Termatic Stress Dissorder (P.T.S.D.).
Write about good changes (better parenting), bad changes (turn to alchoal, drugs, abusive, etc), or what ever you feel like sharing!

Oh, I know what you mean. My dad has PTSD. And other brain trauma. I feel like the gov totally jipped us! We got nothing! No apology, no free counciling, no benefits for injury or surgery. It's sad. I dont want to get into details publicly, but trauma from explosions makes people respond slower or become more violent or braindead. PTSD causes bad dreams, real life reactions to fake or imagined things, etc. It's scary. If you want to know more, message me! From Jess XD

My dad hasn't sought any help due to the fact of this. In fact, he's in denial of the fact he even has PTSD. Don't get me wrong, he's not super screwed up in the head. However, he's emotionally abusive and my family's very stressed out when he's around. He's in South Korea right now, and when he gets back my parents are getting divorced. It's hard but i do know it's for the better for my family too.
