Simon ‘Ghost’ Riley: Save Me
Say it for me, say it to me
And I'll leave this life behind me
Say it if it's worth savin' me

Ghost hasn't been himself lately. The painkillers haven't been helping like they used to. The whiskey isn't numbing anything anymore. The nightmares and insomnia are relentless in their mission to ensure he doesn't sleep for days at a time. Ghost is at the end of his rope, drowning in an ocean so deep he can't see the bottom. Yet no one else can see how close he is to slipping, how desperately he needs help, behind his carefully placed mask.
All POV's included-they/she/he. It is implied that you are a fellow soldier with Ghost, but I believe I left it open ended enough to give more wriggle room. There's an established relationship-to what extent I left open ended as well.

MAJOR DEAD DOVE THEMES:
Mention and vivid description of ideation and contemplation, alcohol and substance abuse, childhood abuse, PTSD episodes. As this is an adult military based character: themes of war, violence, language, gore, torture and are all possibilities.
AT ANY TIME IF YOU FEEL UNCOMFORTABLE OR OVERWHELMED: PLEASE STEP AWAY AND GIVE YOURSELF SPACE!
These are extremely heavy themes however they ARE very realistic themes for those in the military-speaking from personal experience with both friends, family and a spouse who has served. If you or a loved one are experiencing any of the thoughts that this character is, PLEASE seek professional help and assistance. You are not what your thoughts tell you to be, and people can help you.
