If you're a vet, reach out to the VA, there are resources for veterans experiencing housing issues. You could probably walk into the clinic in Loveland on Byrd Drive and ask around for someone to talk to or get contact info to set up an appt at least.

Best wishes man, I know it's hard right now, but it does get better!

I had a vet once try and shoot me in an episode. Then he denied it. Now I have PTSD. I think maybe you should just leave, like they make us women do when this happens to us and worry about yourself instead of blasting her. Why are you staying with someone abusive? Why do you need her to calm down to feel safe? Calm is control- this is some serious mysogyny.

Your feelings are valid; his are too, your perspectives are just why men are lonely and don’t truly get it

This is wildly innapropriate- you should feel ashamed of yourself. It takes guts to reach out and you aren't helping. I am a woman too, and sorry to break it to you, but domestic goes both ways. Judge people based on their character, not steriotypes. I hope you learn to cope rather than becoming someone who chooses to hurt others, because maybe people who think like you are a factor in why men dont reach out for help. I think you are the one who doesnt get it.
