When we separate from the Armed Forces, or our law enforcement organizations, or even just when we have to uproot our lives and move to a new area of the country and leave our old life behind, we are bombarded by intrusive thoughts. It's always difficult to make new friends, especially civilian friends who may mean well but do NOT think like we do or speak the same language. Our sense of humor can often be misunderstood, further alienating us from society. That adrenaline rush we thrived on during our careers is suddenly gone, replaced by what sometimes feels like a slow, insipid, ridiculously pointless life. As that happens, we become discouraged and begin to withdraw. Feelings of loneliness, depression, and even anger can begin to control us.
It doesn't have to be that way.
Our Left & Right is here for you. You may not feel it, but you still have comrades, brothers-in-arms, and friends. We all have those demons too. But...we have learned how to fight them with each other. We have found our way and now stand shoulder-to-shoulder with each other, braced against the storm that threatens to swallow us. We may slip, we may stagger, we may even fall from time-to-time, but we always pick each other back up and carry on.
There is no need for you to sit in your own miserable foxhole. We want you to join us. Come stand in the shield wall and be one of the warriors to Our Left & Right.
We may not have walked in your shoes, but we know where you've been.
Come stand in the shield wall with us and be part of a Unit once again.
We believe nothing is more cathartic than hunting that which hunts you.
