Attention Instructors. I have NOTHING I can say that this man didnt just clarify and pour into a crystal glass for all to see. PAY ATTENTION! This one thing, start to finish, should be required listening for every instructor and therapist here. You think my tongue is sharp? My story could gut you out and leave you wondering what reality is. I can NEVER tell my Story. Know this. Im not like civilians. I cant become one. But I can calm myself, in my own way, and sometimes that takes looking at another Veteran and saying “ IM SICK OF THEM.” Does it ever stop? No. Does it get better? Never. Does drugs or institutionalized treatment work? No. There is only ONE CURE for me. You, BE A GOOD MAN. Stop starting wars you cant fight in. Stop creating killing machines out of 17 year old boys and acting like its your right in doing so. Then, you would not need men like us. There is NO END for me. Just two states. Triggered. And Untriggered. So if your not clear yet…. DONT PULL TRIGGERS. Z, as usual. Nail on the head. I SEE YOU Brother Warrior. Im just swatting my six. Keep it real. T. Loved the poem by the way. Nuff said.

This is very helpful. There is a useful TAPPING SOLUTION article online that can also provide a visual for anyone looking for this type of introduction to the tapping process. Also, there is a Tapping app. Thank you for sharing this.
