When I first enlisted, I had delusions that I would be untouchable and that bootcamp would be a walk in the park. I guess I am pretty good on the physical part. It is the mental mind game that gets to me. It gets to me pretty bad.
I have not had an easy life, and by no means am I a puzzy. Its just that Marines are scary. When one starts to yell at me, I lose my bearing. I cant seem to act as fast as I normaly do, or even think strait. Im thinking, when I get to bootcamp we will have 3 DIs, and it will be 3 months long with no time to stop and wright in a online form. The Marine playing DI even told me that I would have a hard time at bootcamp becase of this.
I need to get over this. The other poolees do not seem to have as hard of a time with it as me. Is there anything I can do on my own to prepare for the mind games at bootcamp? Perhaps I just have to experiance it over and over. And to think Im going 0311, hahaha...
Oh and just incase, I will not quit. The thought never comes up.
