I'm gonna lay it all on the table here:
I'm a 24 year old United States Marine. I have served 2 Tours in Iraq, getting ready for a third. I'm confident around my Marines, good at my job, and pretty friendly. I take care of my guys, and don't neglect my responsiblities. And I want to kill myself.
It's like being a number. I'm just another Sergeant, sure if I die they will have to inventory my gear, tell my wife (who is on the other side of the country), and then what? They bury me and that's it. No one will remember me, or care inside 4 months that I'm gone. The Corps will not even blink. My wife is more interested in moneymaking and her career than me, and I'm reserved in private, so I don't ikeep many close friends. My own family doesn't like me, though they play nice about it. I'm just a 'nice guy' who people only call when they need something, or when the USMC wants me to kill people for them.
I need a reason to live.
