After I left the Marine Corps
coming home was extremely hard
because I felt
like no one understood me.
And no matter what I would tell
people, they might feel bad.
But they wouldn't really
care too much because they don't
know what I'm going through.
So trying to,
you know, adjust and find
that community or just being
just being allowed to open up
to people was extremely hard.
So I just I just kept
bottling everything up
until
it just was getting too much
to even tolerate. And,
you know, once
I started going through therapy
and everything
is when I was able to find
that community for myself
and that community, it wasn't
even, you know, veterans.
It was just the community -
It was the community
I've had my whole life,
my friends and my family.
It's just, you know, learning
how to open up
and just talk to people is,
you know,
what I had to do
to get back on my feet.
