Will it get easier.
I was sleeping on the couch. Woke up to my wife telling me there was someone in the garage. I ran outside to see what was going on. Trying to draw the guy away from my house hoping he would run towards me. Instead he tried running in my house. So I reacted and grabbed the guy and started beating him. He pulled a gun out than my focus was on getting the gun from him I couldn’t. I than put the guy in a choke hold knowing it only takes about 6 seconds to choke someone out. Well he shot missed I let go than he stuck in my side and pulled the trigger. I lie there in dis belief. He than ran I got up and chased him again and tackled him but the adrenaline wore off. I walked slowly back to my house but couldn’t make it. Woke up in hospital spent two weeks in. Got out for three days than went back in for another week because of internal bleeding in my kidney. I Don’t like asking for help I’m strong and independent. I feel bad for everyone around me who helps because I’m not used to it. My wife has been a rock but I feel bad for her because I can be an asshole sometimes. I don’t like being stuck in the house I like being out doing stuff. While I was in the hospital someone made a prank call to the house saying there was a little girl being held at gunpoint in my house. My daughter was at school at the time. But that has forever changed me I have a hard time leaving her home alone anymore. I had a panic attack the other day when she wanted to stay home. Even though that was forward progress for her. All I could think of somebody breaking in house. Sorry for the ramble just wanted to get that out there. I tend to bottle things up. And it still doesn’t even seem real to me until I feel the pain from the wounds. Thanks for hearing me out.
