On mobile so forgive me. About 2 years ago I went to a my community pool and as I pulled up I noticed a 1 year old child passed out beat red in the back seat of a SUV. I proceeded to break the window and pull the child from the car. Calling 911 while I rocked this baby back and forth in my arms balling my eyes out. Found the mother inside the pool house attending a party for another child. I was labeled a savior cause the kid survived. But no one knows around summer time every year I think of that child and think of my kids and i break down. I get angry at every God damn parent who has ever done this. I get sad and ball my eyes out alone in the shower for every kid that had to cook alive in a hot car. I have nightmares of that kids face almost every night during hot summer nights. When I sweat in the sun I think of him. I know I'm not okay and i dont know how to tell people this is why I shut down during the summers. I have no idea how to break this.

It's wimps like you that keep real people from getting help with shell shock, which only people that have been in war, or police and firefighters.
