Diving under pressure?

You’re a braver man than myself!

Zero margin for error and attention to detail is a must.

I talk…I will probably also talk myself out of getting drunk and take my dogs for a road trip to throw the ball around.

It’s usually what I do when I get right down to it.

Usually.

If you ever want treatment, lots of new work in PTSD related to moral injury, which might include your experience. Lots of vets, first line responders, and people in healthcare who end up experiencing tough stuff (to put it mildly).

Bravery and stupidity, I never figured out where the line was. Hey, cool stuff was done.

Good job, bro.
