This one hurt; the day I originally posted it, it hurt, and seeing today as my #onthisday, it hurt again. Im truly ashamed to have such thoughts at times, because there are Gold Star families out there who would give anything to have their Marine, Soldier, Sailor or Airman back. But I have to remain transparent about the things we as Veterans go through, & this is just one of many ugly truths, in that thoughts like this creep up at times… #foryou #veterans #vettok #miltok #vettokcommunity #ptsd #intrucivethoughts #addiction #deployment #taps #finalrollcall #hardtruths #veteran #marine #combatveteran #transparency #hithard #rough #emotional #ashamed #goldstarfamilies #apieceofmedied #coopnmike
