Great article Drew! This is the direction we need to take mental health in this country, and I’m happy to see programs like DE-CRUIT being featured. Also, very happy to hear Craig Manbauman’s story, and what sounds like him creating an SVA chapter at Long Island University Brooklyn!
Hi Sandra, Thank you so much for your kind words, and for considering my story for your book. I’ll send a note offline so we can talk and see how I might be able to help.
I’m also sorry that you went through everything you’ve gone through, but am grateful that you’re still here and are now fighting to save others. Please keep up your incredible work, and please consider me a supporter and friend of all that you are doing.
Sincerely,
Lauren, Thank you for your support! Proud to be doing this work and to ensure that other folks don’t have to go through what many of us have gone through as well.
I’m glad you’re safe and free today as well. I’m sorry you wen through everything that you went through, but I’m happy you’re here, and hope that you’re able to share your experiences with others, so they might avoid the trap we fell into. Thank you for your support, and thanks for following us here at MIA!
I’m sorry you’ve had this experience as well. No one deserves to be put through this. I can say for myself that I just feel lucky to be alive; and am equally happy that you made it through as well.
Also, ditto on EVERYTHING you said in your second paragraph 🙂
Thanks Rachel! It’s not just veterans. We need to rethink the way we do mental health, because much of what we’ve been told is turning out to be wrong and is causing harm.
Thank you so much, Fiachra. This mission isn’t one that I planned for, but I’m proud to have the opportunity to represent those who might not be able to do it for themselves.
That sounds right. I know from experience how big of a nightmare this was, and I know a lot of other folks are having it a lot worse than I ever did. I’m hoping more people see articles like this and have a better idea of what they’re signing up for.
Thank you for your note, and I’m sorry you’ve gone through and are still going through this today. Please keep fighting on your end as well. People need to hear our stories, as every day that goes by, is another day that people are irreparably harmed. Thanks again for your support, and for following MIA!
Thank you so much for your kind words. I’m sorry that you have gone through this as well, and are also fighting cancers and other issues. I hope this story, yours, and the stories of others can give hope to those suffering, or who don’t yet know they have been harmed. Please keep fighting, and if you’re interested in sharing your story, I’d love to help you share your experience with others as well. Thank you for your service, and for all that you continue to do for our country. Sincerely, -Derek
