EXCERPT: Living with Combat Trauma

“Life in eastern Afghanistan was pretty boring – that is, for my first 72 hours. They choppered us about 12 clicks from our FOB and our mission was to walk back through several small towns, seeing what they needed and trying to sniff out intel about insurgents in the area….I wasn’t ready to see what I saw when I got there….I’ve been home for eight months now. It was great at first, but then things began to change….Sometimes I think God might be able to help me, but go to church? Forget about it. I feel so exposed there – like a sniper’s drawing a bead on me. And I’m sure the people there think I’m crazy. I’d rather just stay home, draw the curtains and listen to my music. I feel safe here. Sort of.”
