Not really, I just never felt the need to post until a few months ago.
Why would you even want to be normal?
It's boring
Benzo or Opiates.
Although I'd recommend opiates, benzo is pretty addictive :/
Buy a console, or some PC games. Just keep yourself occupied until it passes. If that fails, see a therapist.
Hey, I dunno if this will help you or not, but I'd just like to say thanks for doing a great job.
It's a job I wouldn't be able to do, and I've needed people like yourself on several occasions. Not to mention the countless friends and relatives that have needed people like you every so often. So yeah, not much I can offer you, but my thanks. I hope that helps to bring you some calm.
play Duke Nukem 3d for about 48 hours and you'll be so used to blood and death that it wont even faze you
or just take a vacation to vegas, get some hookers and i'll let you decide the rest...
dude just man up, learn to turn off your brain, dont think, just do what your superior tells you to do. [B]DONT THINK JUST DO YOUR JOB[/B]
Sanity is a myth anyway dude. I really cannot think of anybody who I can say is perfectly sane. But if being a paramedic is really taking too much of a toll on you, maybe it isn't the right job for you.
My friend is trying to become a paramedic, and from what he's told me, it's a freaking heavy job to have. Very demanding physically and mentally.
My hat is off to you for doing it at all. I know I couldn't handle it.
And, if you truly love being a paramedic, I think you should concentrate on all the people you have saved. That is such an awesome achievement to have! And maybe take a vacation to help get your mind healed.
Everybody is crazy, sanity was invented so people could use that as an excuse to either escape punishment or justify it.
You are currently sane.

What the fuck was that?
I feel for you, OP, and I have to admit that while some people can deal with what they do better than others, it helps remind yourself that you're doing a job that also saves lives and gives people chances they wouldn't have had if not for you.
Sure, you see people die, but they would have died anyway even if you weren't there. You can't be blamed for the ones you couldn't save, but there are plenty you do save. It's all a matter of perspective.
facepunch? sanity?..whuh?
I find spacing out to music helps with stress.

I've just started therapy facepunch, and I'm considering joining a rugby union league.
Thanks for all your help guys. I might update this thread with stories sooner or later.

I hope the therapy helps, and I hope you'll enjoy the rugby.
And I hope you'll update the thread :unsmith:
[QUOTE=Aven;22184560]
I've seen so many grisly things lately, this is getting hard to deal with.
It's taking a toll on my personal life, my relationships, my sanity at home.
I've seen grown men weep at the sight of their kin, dead.
I've held babies as they died in my arms.
I've seen people torn to pieces, battered and bruised by anyone and everyone.

You can't dwell on it, you can't dwell on any of it.

But I need help.

I've seen people torn to pieces, battered and bruised by anyone and everyone.
So, I need a muse, something to get my mind off all this.
I've been toking up more than usual, playing more guitar than usual.
Is there anything I can do to ease my mind off of all this?
Anything anyone can do to help would be appreciated.[/QUOTE]

You're a paramedic ? Dude that's awesome ! Dude you save lives that's sweet ! Good Job.
