| You have no idea... What it's like to teach high school English for fifteen years, only to have your favorite student blow his brains out all over your shirt with a .45 magnum. Watch your PTSD escalate, your marraige fall apart, and your life slide downhill. Watch yourself end up in jail because you drank to escape the pain you can't identify. God is great. God is good. Let us thank Him for our food. Amen. |

| ((( Wolftrap ))) You're right. I don't have any idea how you must feel... but there are people out there who do. Have you found a support group or a counselor to talk to? More hugs Cats |

| I am sorry to have to read about this, I have always felt that our teachers are overworked and underpaid, but now it seems they are also putting their lives on the line because of the chance that one of their students may go postal and harm everyone who just happens to be around at the time and then take their own life. I could just imagine the thoughts that were going through your head at that moment. |

| So sorry to hear that. Is there someone who deals with PTSD you can talk with? I know some people that were in the service that go through this. |
