It took us months (seriously months) the previous deployment to get back to where we were. <br />Keep communicating and working through it.Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06301106509706986405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8463759060882042606.post-55881612874153345492011-05-19T15:53:38.768-04:002011-05-19T15:53:38.768-04:00At least you're talking through it... that'...At least you're talking through it... that's probably the best/only thing you can do.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8463759060882042606.post-43748355038327804402011-05-18T19:40:57.566-04:002011-05-18T19:40:57.566-04:00Shelly - read Lt Col Dave Grossman's On Combat...Shelly - read Lt Col Dave Grossman's On Combat and/or On Killing. I have On Combat if you'd like to borrow it. He goes into great depth about the physiologicial and pyschological impact of long term combat stress. Why they come back belching and not communicating, etc. It's the best information I've ever found on it.Kristenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07670157414339809274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8463759060882042606.post-42945694265147381552011-05-18T19:15:23.980-04:002011-05-18T19:15:23.980-04:00I shared parts of this with my husband, and he agr...I shared parts of this with my husband, and he agreed with what you said about what the guys experience. We too struggled with feeling so close and communicating so well during the deployment and then not having that when he came home. We weren't prepared for that. <br /><br />I'm so glad that you guys are communicating better now, and that you're working through some of this stuff now.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03788049430924198651noreply@blogger.com
