Haha.
That's fucking fantastic, on so many levels.

Did you see the docu on. Oh bollocks what am I saying?
On TV last night, documentary about soldiers sleeping on the streets and the high instances of PTSD, Alcoholism and psychotic behaviour amongst them.
I was almost in tears at times.

When I left 1 in 3 lance jacks leaving were still unemployed after 18 months.
I am doing okay, but I did take some time to adjust.

I had a family
business to walk into and no money worries.
I also had a good family willing to put up with the new me. It did cause my divorce but I just call those her 'idiot' years as she has remarried me since ;)

I was lucky. I think without that support I would have been in that program last night.

let's be fair.
a high proportion of the intake is there because they have little else to offer society but for those that are more, they still turn us into sociopathic dependants.
