With the news coming out of Afghanistan, it is completely understandable that people may have thoughts and feelings that are incredibly difficult to process. Maybe they served, or had a loved one who did, or perhaps they lost a loved one. If you or anyone you know is struggling to come grips with things, remember you are not alone, and it is 100% okay to ask for help. Call a friend or family member, or one the many hotlines that are out there. I will personally respond to any messages you send here if you feel like talking to me.
When we started this group, we made a choice to stay politically neutral, but as a veteran myself I feel that this goes beyond politics and finger pointing. There are people already struggling with demons on a daily basis, and I can't think that recent events have made things any easier. Please get help if you need it, and check on people that you think could use it. Even a quick text could be a huge factor for them right now.
