These numbers don't even factor those of us who have thought about and/or attempted suicide-WHY? Yes, us, because, it's me too. Why is this final measure so often the sought after go to option for so many, too many Servicemembers and Veterans who have survived bullets, IEDs, high-risk training, and arduous operating environments? Are we not Grateful, Thankful for the gift of life, of having survived what so many of our comrades did not? Is it possible that the mask required to survive such intense life-altering moments becomes sometimes the way of life and although externally some of us look unscathed by it all, internally our wounds are so deep, so painful that we just want to stop the bleeding, to just end the suffering that many can't, don't see.  Is it possible that for some of us who already feel internally deceased, Suicide is the means of external completion?....My Hope is that we'll chose to Live through it. Until next time, Thank you for your Service and Stay Blessed! 00:30:00AD2VetsnoAD2Vets,EndMilitarySuicides,EndVeteranSuicides266 Active Duty and 8000 Veterans committed Suicide in a year's time-WHY?Military Transitionshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/ad2vets/2016/08/21/military-transitionsSelf Helphttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/ad2vets/2016/08/21/military-transitions/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/ad2vets/2016/08/21/military-transitionsSun, 21 Aug 2016 19:24:17 GMTMilitary TransitionsWe've all delt with some form of Transition in our lives. From my experience with military Service, there comes a plethora of Transitions. "We don't know what we don't kow", this phrase I have heard and even utilized many a times throughout my military career. My takeaway from nearing two decades of military Service is that the more informed and proactive we as Servicemembers are from the onset of our Service to its inevitable conclusion, be it separation or retirement, the better hopefully we and our Families are to weather the impact of each Transition. From assimilation, sometimes referred to as indoctrination, to our eventual separation-no matter how prepared we think we are, there's usually the "we don't know what we don't know" factor.  Sometimes we don't know because we think we know and bypass the information in front of us that can shed some much needed insights. And sometimes, we don't know because the information we need to know isn't often discussed and is usually happened upon when we're in the thick of it-what I call 'OJL" (On the Job Learning). The more known before and during any type of transition in the military, from a permanent change of duty station, to deployment, to retirement, the less 'OJL' needed for us and/or our Families. Hopefully, what we touch on will lessen your 'OJL' during whatever Transition phase you and your Family are currently experiencing in your military Service journey. Thank you for your Service and Be Blessed! 00:30:00AD2Vetsno#AD2Vets,#MilitaryTransitionsWith military Service, Transitions happen. It's a matter of how we Transition, not if!
