You absolutely did defend our country. A team is required and members of the team are essential to the functioning of the team.
My meds don't make me perfect. Far from it. They make me more tolerable as well, but at this point any improvement comes as a welcomed relief.
I have been fired many times as well. It is really irritating when less intelligent people advance, I often think that it is because simpletons are less intimidating and over all just not too complicated. I would rather have my brain, with all of its complications than be a simple simpleton.
You have accomplished a lot in your life and you have done it while dealing with BP. This is no easy task. It is not easy to be a Marine. It is not easy to get through Nursing School and be a nurse. These are pretty major accomplishments, yet when you are feeling down it is easy to overlook the good in ourselves. I know, I am the same way.
Just get through this day. I know you are worried, but I really believe that it will not result in the worst case scenario. Your actions seem to have been very reasonable under the circumstances.

"I hated labels. People didn’t fit into slots—prostitute, housewife, saint—like sorting the mail. We were so mutable, fluid with fear and desire, ideals and angles, changeable as water."
