WWYD???
You know a military wife is using drugs, you know she is hopping from different doctor to score a new prescription to take in conjunction with the old, speedball mixtures. She's drinking and getting so tanked she's unable to even stand for longer than five minutes at a time. WWYD??
This is the story of so many military wives. The hospitals hand out prescription pain killers like it's candy and one only has to say "ouch" and it's a "5" rating on a scale of 1-10. Civilian doctors don't think that the spouse of a soldier would be abusing narcotics and therefore hands it out readily. Plus, they know they're going to get paid by their good insurance. But let's be really honest here, the military wife is a tough job. It would easily break anyone, even the toughest broads on the planet.
Due to the difficult nature of marriage, let alone the military marriage, depression and addiction is easily come by in the military life. What are your feelings on this?? WWYD?? Have you felt yourself slipping??? How far is too far???
