"I came home and just laid on the floor in my living room drunk. I couldn't do anything. Couldn't leave the house. Couldn't do anything but just lay there on the living room floor and drink, staring at the ceiling. My best friend in the universe (a legit BFF, if you will), he came and laid next to me on my living room floor."
For those who don't understand the dynamics described here, Sebastian Junger has made a film, "Coming Home" that explores why for Vets coming home, it's harder than their last tour. [0]
