Thank you. One of my issues, I guess, is just doing what I'm told, so they told me I had to do it, and I just soldiered on. The appointment wasn't supposed to be that long, but apparently I have a lot of issues.
T was like, "We're going to start with childhood, then talk about your time in the military, then about your time after the military." And I was like, 'buckle up'
I do feel better now, thanks. Just need a few more days to tamp it all back down, lol. Some of it I've literally never talked about before and there she was, asking these probing questions I had to answer. It was awful. But, over now.
