Sometimes efforts are too great to have been made in vain
🕑 Added 2023-07-09 18:04:57 +0000 UTCResolving the trauma of combat in War
I wrote recently about my efforts to resolve PTSD in someone who had experienced being a child soldier in Africa. I SUCCEEDED.
And for some reason my success is often followed by negativity. It's as if the negativity and pain of this individual is seeking revenge, such that I might regret my actions.
Since my success I've gotten my phone stolen and people around me have treated me as less than human. But just now I turn to my left and see an 8 year old boy with his family and imagine him being taken away never to see them again, And given an AK 47 and forced to kill or be killed.
The emotional damage is unfathomable.
I'd like to get back to work digging myself out of this hole. So I can be a better more stable part of this community.
I need to raise $150 for a phone and $150 for my cell service.
Venmo is all that works now.

Hello Colin, I went to the park today and looked for you, but I didn't see you. What is the other park you go to? I got you a pre-paid phone. Maybe it can help while you get what you need. Let me know if you read this so we can coordinate. <3
