PTSD Patrol Don't Give Up On Me

(Still sick and now pulled muscles from coughing....)

I was thinking about what video to put up today along with knowing one from me wouldn't be a good idea. Wouldn't be very inspirational. Today I went grocery shopping because the meds were helping enough that I could breathe easier. 

I had my mask on, which was good since I was coughing at times and had to breathe through my mouth. The strange thing is, people were really nice because I think they could see I was struggling. After everything was almost loaded into the car, there were 2 cases of water left. A man, also wearing a mask, asked if I needed help. At that point, I had already taken mine off, so I walked away from him and accepted his help. I let him know I appreciated it.

Not giving up kept coming into my mind. In all honesty, this song was not among the ones I was searching for, but when I heard the lyrics, it seemed perfect.

While the song is not about PTSD it is about not giving up on someone...as much as it is about them not giving up on you!

Don't Give Up On Me

I will fight
I will fight for you
I always do until my heart
Is black and blue
And I will stay
I will stay with you
We'll make it to the other side
Like lovers do
I'll reach my hands out in the dark
And wait for yours to interlock
I'll wait for you
I'll wait for you
'Cause I'm not givin' up
I'm not givin' up, givin' up
No, not yet
Even when I'm down to my last breath
Even when they say there's nothin' left
So don't give up on
I'm not givin' up
I'm not givin' up, givin' up
No, not me
Even when nobody else believes
I'm not goin' down that easily
So don't give up on me
And I will hold
I'll hold onto you
No matter what this world'll throw
It won't shake me loose
I'll reach my hands out in the dark
And wait for yours to interlock
I'll wait for you
I'll wait for you
'Cause I'm not givin' up
I'm not givin' up, givin' up
No, not yet
Even when I'm down to my last breath
Even when they say there's nothin' left
So don't give up on
I'm not givin' up
I'm not givin' up, givin' up
No, not me
Even when nobody else believes
I'm not goin' down that easily
So don't give up on me
Whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yea
I will fight
I will fight for you
I always do until my heart
Is black and blue
