This is a very intense piece. As someone who has struggled with mental illness, this hits the nail on the head.On a technical note, this is solid writing. There are some run-on sentences, which work in the deep parts but less so outside them. Also, watch out for passive tense. A piece this solid needs active tense every bit of the way.It wasn't always a fun read, but it was gripping and felt very real.

I urge fellow veterans and all people to reach out; our invisible scars deserve attention. Together, we can support one another—camaraderie is our greatest strength.
