i've lost touch with the other analyst who served in a similar capacity. he left the army and moved to ohio. from the guys who served as our psd, only one is still serving and he seems to be doing well.

the va is just there. they try hard to take care of us, but the system is overwhelmed with the number of returning soldiers. all soldiers receive 5 years of va care upon return from deployment or discharge. look how long it took to identify agent orange and gulf war syndrome. i'm just stuck in the system.

i feel like there is a root cause to my illness that can be fixed if someone would look at the totality vs specialists treating things as separate diseases. plus they are very "generous" with meds. too generous at times and i worry about the potential for addiction.
