So, how are you doing now? Do you still keep in touch with former military and cop friends?
I don't talk to anyone anymore but personally I'm doing really good. I'm extremely happy in life.
Former military but not cop here, got out in 2019, same here bro. What do you do for work?
I was a LRS in the Army and became a cop about 1.5 years after coming home. After that I did everything I could to destroy my life wallowing in Despair and depression for about 9 years.
One day I decided I was going to like myself flaws, past mistakes and all. From that day forward I have been perpetually happy. That's not an exaggeration either, I literally never feel down. I have come to the conclusion that as cliche as it sounds loving and truly accepting yourself is the key to happiness.
I'm retired now. I got lucky with something.
How have you been doing since you got out? Obviously I'm quite a bit older than you but I know it took me many years to readjust.
