A message from Dr. Ruff –

Hello everyone and thank, you all for taking the time to read this update. More importantly thank you for all of your support over the past months since the incident. The support I have received here and in other venues has been very overwhelming in a good way. With that in mind, I wanted to provide an update for you all concerning the state of things.

As I was always as transparent as I could be with my students, I would like to continue that trend here. Specifically, I have always tried to be open and honest concerning my own personal struggles with anxiety and depression, illnesses I was diagnosed with when I was a high school student myself, illnesses that I continue to struggle with to this day.

Since the incident I have continued to see my doctors and to monitor my own mental health in light of the events. We have tried a variety of therapies and approaches with little to no success. Given the circumstances of my mental health as a result of the incident and its aftermath, this has proven to be a very daunting task.

As a result of this my doctors recently diagnosed me with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, or PTSD. This diagnosis offers no relief for me and my family, but rather has lined out the long road to recovery that I will be walking as my psychiatrist stated, for years to come.

Given my fragile state, and under the advice of my psychiatrist I will be attempting to move forward with a disability retirement under my PTSD diagnosis. This will allow me to focus on getting myself back to a healthier place, where hopefully I will one day again be able to help students. I cannot begin to thank you all for your support these past few months, but please know it has made a huge impact on me. Thank you all, and May the Force be with You,

Yours Dr. Ruff

So this loser gets on the metal disability short bus as the taxpayers take it in the wallet to give him and his service pet 'logan' the funds for endless supply of lube-n-plugs. Sound about right ?
