I actually discovered grass (not pot, but real grass) growing out of my carpet, near a leaky door, in my computer room....LOL
     Depression is such a wonderful gift.  It must be embraced and admired, lest you let it kill you, in anger.  Depression is a gift, as well as a curse.

     Rural Maine can be a good place for distressed vets to hide out from the world, as there are cheap house prices, and little hassles from the real world in terms of traffic or aircraft sounds.

     On the other hand, there can be problems getting adequate medical treatment for your medical problems.  Plus, a lot of the troubled people attracted to these areas, along with the high drug/alcohol use (which you will find anywhere in America), the intense snow, and extreme cold, along with very dark winters, can bring on Seasonal Affective Disorder (winter depression) and other problems.

     No place is ideal, but rural Maine is not a bad place to hide from the stresses of the world.  You will need a good vehicle to get around in, and to get to the VA clinic and hospital for your medical treatment.  I use broadband and Sirius XM satellite radio to keep me connected to the world.
