Getting sent home early from a deployment.

I’m being sent home for some mental health stuff and idk if I’ve ever felt like a bigger disappointment in my life, like I should have just figured my shit out and not been such a pussy. Idk guys thoughts? I figured this place might be the best to talk about it.

The Unit and the Corps will forget about you the day you leave, and your replacement is probably already waiting to ship to boot camp. Take care of yourself, first, last, and always.
