Vets & Active Duty, Served 12 yrs, medically retired Oct '06. Been over a year & still feel uncomfortable in the civillian world. I feel like everybody thinks, speaks, act, etc differently. Civillians drive me crazy, I don't understand their ways, yet I'm in my own country, one that I defended, I can't land a job, don't fit in socially, you name it. From the outside I look like a well adjusted guy, I'm a 31 yr old educated, articulate, good all-american christian, yet I feel like an alien, only people I seem to feel comfortable around is my wife & vets, I could go on about this for days, I don't understand the world I live in, I feel like civilllians are nothing but a bunch of idiots, I know their not but it seems like I can't go a day without wanting to snap, I accomplished so much in my 12 yrs of service yet it doesn't really matter to civillians? Love to listen to their problems about work, ever have to work where you get shot at? why don't you try working under those conditions?
