something you might relate to... - PTSD

I know that I haven't found the time or words to put my whole story out here yet. But this community has given me some sense of hope, if only in that I am not alone in what I'm going through. I'm not the only one who feels like the soldier I knew must still be in Iraq. This song by Leann Rimes really hits home with me. It's actually about losing someone, and how impossible it is for her to move on, and how no on understands. But I really feel like the words also describe how I feel when it comes to my soldier. because I do feel, and I know you all can relate, that I have lost him in so many ways. Just thought I would share. Keep smiling ladies, and keep faith and hope.

Probably Wouldn't Be This Way lyrics:

Got a date a week from Friday with a preacher's son
Everybody says he's crazy
I'll have to see

I finally moved to Jackson when the summer came
I won't have to pay that boy to rake my leaves

I'm probably going on and on
It seems I'm doing more of that these days

[CHORUS 1:]
I probably wouldn't be this way
I probably wouldn't hurt so bad
I never pictured every minute without you in it
Oh You left so fast
Sometimes I see you standing there
Sometimes it's like I'm losing touch
Sometimes I feel that I'm so lucky to have had the chance to love this much
God gave me a moment's grace
'Cause if I'd never seen your face
I probably wouldn't be this way

Mama says that I just shouldn't speak to you
Susan says that I should just move on

You oughta see the way these people look at me
When they see me 'round here talking to this stone

Everybody thinks I've lost my mind
But I just take it day by day

[CHORUS 2:]
I probably wouldn't be this way
I probably wouldn't hurt so bad
I never pictured every minute without you in it
Oh You left so fast
Sometimes I see you standing there
Sometimes I feel an angel's touch
Sometimes I feel that I'm so lucky to have had the chance to love this much
God gave me a moment's grace
'Cause if I'd never seen your face
I probably wouldn't be this way

Probably wouldn't be this way

Got A Date a week from Friday with a preacher's son
Everybody says I'm crazy
Guess I'll have to see
