I’ve always wondered how the blokes that came back from WW1 & WW2 managed ?…..now, I’ve given this some thought.

To cut a long story short I think it shows how bad modern society is for your mental health, we are returning these men to a world that’s bad for your f***ing head at the best of times !

I know a bit about trauma (as they call it now) and I also know a bit about just dealing with that on your own without any type of help at all…as in zero.

So I come at the subject from a point of discovery rather than sympathy, and there just has to be a reason….and I can only conclude it’s because we are putting them into a society that’s f***ing howling !

No longer do we have the support of our community or familiar things, no longer do people have time to give in a world made up of stay afloat and 30 second tik toks…..the world was always hard, but now it’s cold….i guess a lot of lads feel like a stranger in their own community’s so what must it be like for these blokes who are dealing with real stuff.

It always makes me smile when you see people talk blasé about violence or killing, my bet is they have no idea what it feels like to look at the inside of someone’s head splattered all over the floor !…..what a butchered human being looks likes ? 
That was some of these blokes everyday, and then they come back to this f***ing abortion of a society ?…..no wonder their heads in tatters. 
Id be a massive advocate of wipe your mouth and crack on, but sometimes people just need a helping hand and to know their friends and their community have their back if need be.

”Not up to it” is a very casual thing to say, fact is, nobody knows what they would be up to until they face it and facing it is a massive reality check almost none of them will ever have to deal with.

Nobody is “made” to experience some of this stuff, by its very nature you have to experience it to know and then work it out after.

Im glad that we are better at recognising that than we have ever been.

Violent destruction of human beings isn’t the same as watching your granny pass away peacefully in her bed with the family gathered round, you know that right ?

No mate it would hurt most people alot more watching there granny die peacefully 

Then it would to have a free pass to cause violent destruction on someone  you didn't like most would call that a dream come true

Spoken like a man with zero Experince ! lol 

I think human beings have an amazing capacity to overcome and function, I won’t say heal because I don’t believe that’s true…..I think experiences will colour your view for the rest of you life, but they can learn how to rationalise, compartmentalise and function…..some just need a little hand and even more so in this modern world.
