Are you READY?
Nobody doubts that the most challenging time for a military spouse is enduring separation from their Soldier. These times can be stressful. It is so easy to get caught up in taking care of children, home, and work and not take care of yourself-especially when your Soldier is not around to help out.
There are a few ways to alleviate the stresses of separations. Prepare for the deployment by ensuring you know how to take care of financial matters and to respond to emergencies. You should take advantage of every opportunity to increase your knowledge by attending briefings and trainings designed to prepare Family members for deployments. Also, attend Family Readiness Group meetings and get to know other spouses and Family members.
