[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 708687, member: 18958"] You know there are so many common elements to our stories, for many of us. The depression and the anxiety, and the marijuana or worse that may come as a result. But I am struck by the survivor's guilt. The angst of so many, who because they LIVE and could have died, that plagues them. In mof's son case it was his own near-death experience. In my son's, Lil's, and pigless' it was a parent. There are more who I can think of right now. Survivor's guilt has plagued me for my whole adult life. Why and how did I live, when others did not. Did I deserve it? Why? Why me? And then, to be alone. All who is left. Imagine what it is for our children. So unable to understand their lives or how to make a life story. This is it in a nutshell. All of us here, together, too. Thank you, mof. [/QUOTE]
