Ok, my father he is in the USMC, and was deploied for 6 months, well he came home to day and everything was good and happy for about 2 hours or so.... Now i'm back to feeling depressed and even more lonly :huh: WTF, my dad may have not come home possibly because of the war, and he comes home with out anything wrong and i get more depressed? How is that possible, i know i care about him the same as my mother, but i can't even enjoy the fact that he has come home, after 6 months? What is wrong with me, i mean this makes no sence, and this isn't the only problem i have, i dont get it nearlly 3 yrs of therapy, and i cant enjoy things any more? :x :?

What should i do, nothing i do makes me happy, im already on three anti-depressant pills, xanax, ect...

How do people cope with this, it's not fair, high school the last glory days of being a minor.... and i can't even enjoy them! :evil:

Maybe you were expecting something magical that didn't happen, and the expectation caused the crash. Maybe the expectation was a magical feeling that is only possible for a five-year-old. Your emotions are grown up now and shouldn't be the same.

Maybe it's him. He probably would not feel comfortable telling you all that he saw. I'm sure he has some things to sort through. Just being home is huge.

Maybe your feelings will come slowly, in stages. Relief might be one of them.

I'm just guessing and making it up.
