I can't calm down
I just found out that my dad's unit in Afghanistan was bombed recently and no one is telling me if my dad's ok or not. I can't stop crying or shaking and I'm starting to hyperventalate and I feel like I'm going to pass out. Please someone talk to me. Listening to Staind isn't even helping me calm down. Is anyone online? Please....

I'm sorry to hear that, I will be praying for you and your dad. If it helps any, I have a best friend who's husband was over there on the last tour and when something like that happened, it was mandatory that they could not lend any info for a couple of days. They would not allow the soldiers to use computers and what not. I know it sucks to not know but try not to think of the worst. It use to drive my best friend crazy, just talk with friends and family until you find something out and remember that you can't think of the worst. Like I said I will be praying for you and your dad.

no sweetie sorry they don't. They have to go through a bunch of protocol things and it's kinda like lock down. Just hang in there. And like I said don't think the worst.

listen baby girl i just want to start off by saying you need to be so strong for you and your family, if your family sees that your hurting they hurt more, i know that is so freaking hard.....because i went through the same thing with my father,my mother got sick cause i went through depression really bad and still till this day i have my moments... unfortunately my daddy didn't come back :(
rip but you gotta pray and everything will turn out fine by god......stay strong!!

I want to stay strong for my family but the only family i have are my father, mother, and sister. My sister is so busy with her own life that i'm lucky if i can get her to return my phone calls. And i dont know where my mother is. I'm just lucky enough that my ex is letting me stay at his house until i can get on my feet. I'm tired of being homeless. But i'll stay strong for my ex and everyone here on the site because everyone here seems to truly care and it helps me get through the day. Thanks guys.

I was sent to Iraq and dealt with bombings. Unfortunately, they won't let anyone call or email for security reasons. But there is a great amount of truth in the saying "No news is good news." I know that isn't a lot to hold on to, but it is the best advice I have.

Right now the only solace other than that is that i have is the fact that there's only 4 more months of this torture left.

I FINALLY HEARD FROM HIM! He called me while I was at work but my managers were more than okay with me keeping my phone on me in case he ever called. The second I heard his voice I just started crying I was so happy. It was such a relief to hear from him.

I'm glad to hear it. Make sure to tell him there are people here that are thinking of him and wish him a safe return.

Thank you I'll be sure to let him know. He told me that he found a camel spider in his tent and killed it and put it in a frame. He wants to bring it home and show me! No thank you lol I'm afraid of spiders as it is I don't need to be shown a real big freaky looking spider.
