I will pray for you too and for your family.

Please don't let the grandchildren grow up without you.

I pray too that the VA will give you good care today and will ask my church prayer group to pray for you as well.

Sierra is right...we box ourselves in and then depression takes over.I think everyone here has had days so bad that they felt helpless......The fact that you asked us for prayers shows me you have Faith and Faith can overcome anything!

Sameo to us -They (VA) have 38 CFR ,38 USC, and M21-1- but so do we.

Berta's right, Coastie.

Hang in there.

You asked for prayer and we're with you on this.

Blessings be for you and yours.

Peace of mind and heart fill you with strength to continue.

For those who really love you.

And they do, even if it sometimes seems in twisted thinking, like they don't.

Breathe slow in and out. Push out belly ... big on in-breath. Contract belly on out-breath. Clear it out. Breathe in new. There is a message for you as well as strength & courage to continue.

Then do that again. And one more time. Until you reach 10.

That's what I do, and it helps me.

PS ... a few weeks ago i started taking a great product again that really stopped 75%+ of my depression: one a day of this...

"Resvereage Organics. Active Ubiquinol CoQ10 with Resveratrol". it's expensive but omg it so helped me.

Blessings be.

Thank you all for the prayers. I ended up spending a week in Psych unit about 75 miles from home. They didn't have room for me at my local VAMC they sent me by ambulance to a unit in GA.

I am feeling much better after they changed all my Psych meds. I'm going to take a little time off and finish adjusting to the changes.

Hopefully now I can get into some more frequent therapy and try to learn to cope better.

The unit was very humbling, there are a lot of very sick vets out there and for many their future don't hold hardly anything positive.

I am a very blessed man compared to many.

I already knew that was the case, but spending a week with some of my fellow vets, both male & female, just allowed me to see first hand.

God bless you all,

Coastie72
