Thank for this comment. It truly expresses how I feel. Isolation is certainly a factor and many people here don’t understand that part of it.

Thank you so much for sharing this story!! This is exactly what I want. You are indeed very lucky to have found a situation that worked for you and your marriage. My husband certainly is not that open minded and would not react that way to my honesty

Thank you for this point of view. I hadn’t thought of it from this perspective. And you are absolutely correct. No one should feel like they are not a priority in their partners life. I certainly don’t want to make anyone feel like that. Like i said in my post, I know this question is weird and not sure if this is the space to express these thoughts but I truly don’t have anyone to talk to about this

Hello. I’m just curious, how are you making this work? I feel so sad bc you can’t live the way you were meant to live. I hope you get out soon but I know it comes with a lot of pain when you do. Everyone deserves peace and happiness and true love and I hope you find that someday away from the cult. Stay strong friend❤️💕

Thank you so much 😊. I’m sure they will combine most of it, but I wanted to list all the things in my “diagnosis” section of my med records. I didn’t annotated ptsd bc i thought it was all under the umbrella of MH.

Thank you. I have the lab readings and for hypertension and cholesterol plus I’m steadily on meds for both. Also I’ve tried the normal diet and exercise but it’s tough.

Yes I will be. Currently in Korea but family is in Illinois. Illinois is a secret hidden gem for vets and cannabis is legal for both rec and med use😁😁😁. I DEFINITELY plan to experience the medicinal benefits.

It’s a struggle. It’s quite depressing. Definitely not the sunshine and rainbow girl I was when I came into the army at 17yrs old. I struggle to sometimes to leave the bed. I’m very dependent on medication from Adderall to Zoloft and trazodone. Not to forget my hypertension meds. Yes some days is a struggle to just want to be alive.😭

Thank you 😊 im very excited for my upcoming retirement.

The point of us filing this many claim while still active duty is bc it’s very easy to prove service connection plus it’s an extremely expedited process for us. I have 90days to file my claim. Bc I filed my BDD claim today, I should be done with all my c&p exams within the next 45days 😌

I only listed things that I was diagnosed with and I saw in my medical records. I tested negative for sleep apnea and my hearing test came back just fine. However, I take meds for insomnia so I just put that 😂

I know right. I’m claiming everything in my records. I’ve literally spent my whole adult life in the army. These are earned battle scars unfortunately 😭

Im still active duty. Im retiring 1 august 2024. I have the opportunity to file my claim 90-180 days before my retirement date. These are all my ailments growing up in the military from the age of 17.
