Did your injury disqualify you from the Rangers or did you just not attempt it because of injury?

Was it a head injury? THis matters because it can rewire your brain. Depression and a whole host of mental health issues can arise because of it.

Who have you talked to about this? Besides the internet. Because you need at least a friend close by in case you downward spiral one evening after a couple drinks.

Do you have fire arms? Are they unloaded and locked? If not, FIX THAT poo poo ASAP.

What is your career field? Because if you can not get into Ranger or do that really awesome thing you wanted to, at least you need to walk away with your GI Bill, but its better if you walk with that and training/experience in a civilian career field.

Did you make a mistake? Sure. The same one we all made. We sold ourselves to Uncle Sam for reasons. But you can get something out of it. Unless you do something REAL DUMB. Don't do something real dumb. Call a friend, call a chaplin, get help at MH if you go full crisis. gently caress, get into the google group and we can get you a phone a friend.

Don't spend a lot of time alone and not doing anything. Also don't spend a lot of time alone, not doing anything and drinking.

Talk to someone you trust.

And don't drink.
