He had acted like he was having "good" days, weeks and months.

There has to be a way to take the shame out of getting therapy, counseling and group support. We should encourage even the strongest soldier to be okay with getting help for his heart and soul.Rudonfhlehttp://twitpic.com/aqyxytnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37811152.post-8907108043273010722013-01-07T06:06:42.575-06:002013-01-07T06:06:42.575-06:00Thanks for this article.
