PTSD Patrol wake me up!

PTSD Patrol
Kathie Costos
September 13, 2020

The song starts off with, 
"Feeling my way through the darkness
Guided by a beating heart
I can't tell where the journey will end
But I know where to start"
but no one knows where our journey will end. The only thing we have power over, is one moment to the next and how we intend to travel through this life we have.

You can "work your way through the darkness" and get back into the light. You can have your pain and your happiness, by letting the happiness get stronger so it reduces the power of your pain.

I usually end my videos with "It's your life. Get in and drive." because that is what you need to be hearing most of all. You do have the power to change the road you're on and define how you want to live your life!




Feeling my way through the darkness
Guided by a beating heart
I can't tell where the journey will end
But I know where to start
They tell me I'm too young to understand
They say I'm caught up in a dream
Well life will pass me by if I don't open up my eyes
Well that's fine by me
So wake me up when it's all over
When I'm wiser and I'm older
All this time I was finding myself
And I didn't know I was lost
So wake me up when it's all over
When I'm wiser and I'm older
All this time I was finding myself
And I didn't know I was lost
I tried carrying the weight of the world
But I only have two hands
I hope I get the chance to travel the world
But I don't have any plans
I wish that I could stay forever this young
Not afraid to close my eyes
Life's a game made for everyone
And love is the prize
So wake me up when it's all over
When I'm wiser and I'm older
All this time I was finding myself
And I didn't know I was lost
So wake me up when it's all over
When I'm wiser and I'm older
All this time I was finding myself
And I didn't know I was lost
I didn't know I was lost
I didn't know I was lost
I didn't know I was lost
I didn't know I was lost
So wake me up when it's all over
When I'm wiser and I'm older
All this time I was finding myself
And I didn't know I was lost

PTSD Patrol finding a better way

PTSD Patrol
Kathie Costos
September 12, 2020

"Drivin' my life away" is something a lot of people feel as if it explains their lives. 

The song Drivin' My Life Away came on and I thought how appropriate it was to explain what healing #PTSD is like. Looking for a better way and brighter days is what you are doing right now. Celebrate that! #BreakTheSilence and #TakeBackYourLife



Well the midnight headlights blind you on a rainy night
Steep grade up ahead, slow me down, makin' no time,
But I got to keep rollin'
Those windshield wipers slappin' out a tempo,
Keepin' perfect rhythm with the song on the radio,
But I got to keep rollin'
Ooh, I'm drivin' my life away, lookin' for a better way for me
Ooh, I'm drivin' my life away, lookin' for a sunny day
Well the truck stop cutie comin' on to me,
Tried to talk me into a ride
Said I wouldn't be sorry
But she was just a baby
Hey, waitress, pour me another cup of coffee,
Pop it down, jack me up, shoot me out, flyin' down the highway,
Lookin' for the mornin'
Ooh, I'm drivin' my life away, lookin' for a better way for me
Ooh, I'm drivin' my life away, lookin' for a sunny day
Well the midnight headlights blind you on a rainy night
Steep grade up ahead, slow me down, makin' no time,
But I got to keep rollin'
Those windshield wipers slappin' out a tempo,
Keepin' perfect rhythm with the song on the radio,
But I got to keep rollin'
Ooh, I'm drivin' my life away, lookin' for a better way for me
Ooh, I'm drivin' my life away, lookin' for a sunny day
Ooh, I'm drivin' my life away, lookin' for a better way for me
Ooh, I'm drivin' my life away, lookin' for a sunny day, yeah
Ooh, I'm drivin' my life away, lookin' for a better way for me

PTSD Patrol on the road again

PTSD Patrol
Kathie Costos
September 11, 2020

Some people refuse to think about others and learn what the facts are about everything. Just like they are with COVID 19, they refuse to believe the truth and demand to do what they want to do. With PTSD they refuse to learn anything and then think they are smart. 


We know they can get in the way of healing, so remember if they cared, they would learn. Their opinion is not based on facts, so their opinion should hold no power over you. #BreakTheSilence and #TakeBackYourLife from #PTSD

On the road again
I just can't wait to get on the road again
The life I love is makin' music with my friends
And I can't wait to get on the road again
On the road again
Goin' places that I've never been
Seein' things that I may never see again
And I can't wait to get on the road again
Here we go, on the road again
Like a band of Gypsies we go down the highway
We're the best of friends
Insisting that the world keep turnin' our way
And our way is on the road again
I just can't wait to get on the road again
The life I love is makin' music with my friends
And I can't wait to get on the road again, break free
And I can't wait to get on the road again

PTSD Patrol Moral Mortal

PTSD Patrol

September 10, 2020

I finally did it! I started my own business! It is a writing service called Moral Mortal and will also be a public service coming under PTSD Patrol. Anything I do on that part will be for anyone in public service and they will receive huge discounts.







Don't Stop
If you wake up and don't want to smile
If it takes just a little while
Open your eyes and look at the day
You'll see things in a different way
Don't stop thinking about tomorrow
Don't stop, it'll soon be here
It'll be, better than before
Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone
Why not think about times to come?
And not about the things that you've done
If your life was bad to you
Just think what tomorrow will do
Don't stop thinking about tomorrow
Don't stop, it'll soon be here
It'll be, better than before
Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone
All I want is to see you smile
If it takes just a little while
I know you don't believe that it's true
I never meant any harm to you
Don't stop thinking about tomorrow
Don't stop, it'll soon be here
It'll be, better than before
Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone
Don't stop thinking about tomorrow
Don't stop, it'll soon be here
It'll be, better than before
Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone
Ooh, don't you look back
Ooh, don't you look back
Ooh, don't you look back
Ooh

PTSD Patrol go your own way

GO YOUR OWN WAY



When someone you love has PTSD it is lonely and scary for them. You are the only one who knows what they are like and if you love them enough to fight for them. 

Go your own way and stop listening to your friends, learn how to help them heal and get some power tools to help you do it. #BreakTheSilence and #TakeBackYourLife from #PTSD

Fleetwood Mac

Loving you
Isn't the right thing to do
How can I ever change things
That I feel
If I could
Maybe I'd give you my world
How can I
When you won't take it from me
You can go your own way
Go your own way
You can call it
Another lonely day
You can go your own way
Go your own way
Tell me why
Everything turned around
Packing up
Shacking up is all you want to do
If I could
Baby, I'd give you my world
Open up
Everything's waiting for you
You can go your own way
Go your own way
You can call it
Another lonely day
You can go your own way
Go your own way
You can go your own way
Go your own way
You can call it
Another lonely day
Another lonely day
You can go your own way
Go your own way
You can call it
Another lonely day
You can go your own way
You can call it
Another lonely day
You can go your own way
