Ok so here it is my whole life ive never really accomplished much. My family? well no ones ever really been there for and lately they've broken me down i feel helpless and like my life is a waist i tell my self this isn't true but i kant get my self to believe it.!
I live day by day an i don't do much have always thought of joining the army.
And lately that's all i really been thinking about. How do i know its the right thing to do?
i feel like it will help me get more confidence and have some more self-discipline not only will it make me feel Better about my self but it will prove to everyone that am not worthless and i am capable of accomplishing anything i set my mind to. My thing is am scared out my mind i really feel like i should do it because i know i wont do anything else am Just waisting my life and the army can help me? the main thing am scared of is the basic training how dose that work? i know they pay but am not doing it for the pay am doing it to prove a point in a way am doing it for other people maybe i should do it for myself.. am not quite sure
so anyways can some p me my questions are
1. how do i know this is right for me?
2. what happens after i speak to an army recruiter and i sign up?
3. should i be scared?
4. what do i do about my period at basic training?
5. do we have to shower in front of everyone?
6. am on the heavier side so i know i have to get in shape what can i do?
7. army reserve or active duty?
