Greetings professor. I posted a message for you earlier but I'm not
seeing it yet. Maybe I did something wrong. Anyway, I would like to
discuss some issues concerning my disabilty and some late work that I
have for you. I understand I'm way late on essay 2, but at least for
the academic sake I did it. Throughout the past twelve months I've
been dealing with the fallout of war, readaptation to normal society,
identity loss and pretty much PTSD. I just got diagnosed officially a
couple months ago, but I've been dealing with this crap for a couple
years now. It's a 50% disability, or so they say. If you don't know
anything about PTSD it's post traumatic stress disorder. While I was
at war in afghanistan I had to see and do things that I guess humans
aren't supposed to do or see. It scarred me greatly, but nothing was
worse than finding out that I had been tricked into believing I was
out there defending freedom. My psychologist agrees that this PTSD has
affected me to a greater extent than the average veteran due to my
deeper understanding of the conflict. I hope to hear from you soon and
thanks beforehand.
