Luckily I work with a bunch of guys that retired before I did. The whole group helped. The first 3 months were the worst for me. Smooth sailing after that. Just the occasional desire to stomp someone's face in. Just kidding.

LOL I don't blame you; MSgt Erik Copp. It is tough getting out. And weren't you blessed; such as to have the whole group helping you.

SPC Margaret Higgins what helped me was my peer support, and family. The Soldier For Life Program was instrumental in my success, from jobs, to benefits.
