Current Australian government politicians tell the australian people & the world the whole truth a As only you know your pain. Served over seas or not..
I can only offer my "true empathy & support"
Only I know my pain, depth of my anger, my loathing of myself, how it affects the ones left who love and try their very best believe in me. PTSD is not new... Just in name & label....
To the our government we are a COST...$$$$$$$$$$$$.. AND will never admit their responsibility...
To our Authorities, it a business, with cost centres, Budgets, staff
etc....
And will hold on to THEIR, money and limit access to THEIR resources, as hard as they can....
Please don't waist your faith on exceptions of our Government to acknowledge and validate ...
"this will never happen"
Our exceptions that the authorities will guide and provide the support, outlined within their
"terms of reference" or "mandate" .
."This again will not happen"... . .. .. ........ ..... ......... .......
Government & Authorities, will NOT DO the "RIGHT THING"..... ....
Only your peer's and the people that still love you,Will offer REAL support AND never give up on YOU
I care.... others care.... not just in words..... but... support, genuine knowledge, understanding...
Just remember
"You Are Not stupid" and smarter than you give yourself credit for...
" You are valued" for who you are. "You are worthily" of respect, and acknowledgement of the pain you suffer
" You are respected" for being a better person, than you believe,
For you have suffered immensely in the Service of your country and its people. Once given a service number - PmKeys number.. Been in for 50 years or 5 minutes....
"Thank you"
When I am well... I will be your VOICE.. I will fill in forms... I will ADVOCATE for you... I will challenge and embarrass the Government & Authorities on your behalf....
"and do my very best"
When I am unwell, please just be there....for my family ..
