A Warrior From Within

Listen about Covid19 experience and the grit from one of our own US Army Veteran Yvette. The mental health aspect of this on all spectrums and every side is surprising me every day and it is something I can totally relate to. Yvette and I agree that much of the mental health aspect from Covid19/Sars-Cov2 are very similar to PTSD. If you need help during this time Yvette shows us how it’s not a bad thing to speak up and if you know someone that needs help during this time, you shouldn't be afraid to say something. Yvette is an incredible person sharing her experience with Covid19 as one of the first people back in March to get it. When we started learning about it and will continue to learn about it. She is a warrior going to the gates of hell and knocking on the door like many others are right now. She tells about the loneliness and how it got to her during the treatment and how there are two sides to covid19/Sars-Cov2 the mental and the invisible physical. She has a lot of grit and she is open about the struggles that she deals with day in and day out and how this changed her life. True warriors sometimes must go down and knock on the gates of hell, sometimes by themselves, but it is better with do that with other people. It is much easier to knock on the gates of hell with someone else. Sometimes you must do that alone to show how much of a bad ass you are to the rest of the world it’s not fun. Yvette did it and now she has the rest of us to go to the gates of hell with her. A true friend and warrior will be there no matter what and you shouldn't get upset if someone says you might need help. Often the people that are saying you might need help are being a friend. Sometimes are the best friend you could ever ask for because they see something you may not and are trying to help. Don't be afraid to get help and don't be afraid to mention to someone if they are struggling to get help. These times are hard, harder on some people than others and life is hard in general.
