What kind of Bad Thoughts? Have you tried listening to the Tim Ferris Episode, I think that one is a good look at thoughts. I know Jocko isn't a fan of Meditation, but I know a lot of people in my circle benefit from it. Second, Talk to a professional. Bad thoughts are common, and there are beneficial actions you can take. Professionals can help with this. Like Jocko talking about a "mind mechanic". |

I struggle with headaches everyday and anxiety. Add me and the wife arguing and then the dark thoughts roll in. I have started writing everything down to get it out of my system and finally told my wife my issues a couple nights ago. She is going to try to help me through this and I’m planning on reaching out to the va this week after another round of MRI scans. I just have moments of weakness but I’m working on getting a handle on it. Thanks for the response and the info. |

Sounds like a good start. The only thing I would suggest is that your spouse shouldn't also be your councilor. Make someone else your primary and your spouse your back up.
If you need a number before the VA gets up to speed you can have my number. I will PM it to you. I am not professional help, just a guy with a phone.
Keep it up. Talking does help. Getting better takes work. There are others out there who care. You matter.
