Sister Heidi shares her Military experience in extreme graphic detail and speaks of her darkest moments where she herself has considered taking the route of suicide when feeling so disconnected from a world that can oftentimes appear to care not about how one feels as a Military Veteran and what they have to endure in civilian life.
I hope this discussion helps others that feel the extreme isolation, depression and hopelessness that accompany having been used by a system that the majority of times never delivered what was promised at the recruitment office.
These are the real issues that need to be dealt with on our social media platforms and I for one will continue to go deep into this topic from multiple angles on a regular basis and would love to speak with all who need to vent and connect – veterans, family and friends alike – when the world seems to shut them out!
