Im totally with you there mate on how you was feeling. I left recently in march. I f*****d up my leg and was missing my girlfriend too. just kinda felt pretty low from there. Well now im out im no longer with my girlfriend and think about training every day. i want to go back more than anything. Like you i made mental picture in my head that i didnt like it because i new as time went on id forget and wanna go back but truth is i loved every min of it. was stupid to leave. Just gonna give my self a year or so and definatly go back. Wish i coould go back to the day was in sgt majors office when he asked me am i sure i wanna opt out.

As someone who did 2 spells in the mob, some thoughts;

The mob lifestyle, let's face it is going to be a full one, some time off but mostly very demanding most of the time. You are not going to eat or sleep properly, go to places you might want to be :roll:

Basically you are at HM Forces disposal!

If you did leave the 1st time, you must go back in fully with eyes open. What were the -tives or +tives, what will you find acceptable or unacceptable as part of your military life.... be as honest with yourself as possible as to your expectations.

Don't worry mate there are plenty of rejoins. Most of them smash it up as well.
