I was in the Marines from 95-99. I worked Aviation supply as a UNIX administrator. I'm lucky to have learned something that carried into a career after I got out. I was a former Volunteer Firefighter/ EMT from 2007-2012. My knees couldn't take it, sonI had to quit being a firefighter. After that, I quit everything. I battled sever Depression for 12+ years. I gained over 100 pounds and lost all my confidence and lost sight of who I was as a person.
In 2015 I wanted to kill myself. I decided to quit my job and move back to San Diego, the last place I remember truly being happy. It's been a long journey but I'm finally at a point where I have more happy days than sad. I haven't been in a relationship in forever, I Haven't even been on a date in over 7 years. I look forward and still doubt I'll ever be loved again.
While the loneliness overwhelms me, I focus on other things including working out, eating right, trying to get back in shape.
I'm all about sending positive vibes, and encouraging others. I hope you'll read this and have kind, encouraging words for me.
Thanks for reading & getting to know this stranger on the interwebs
