You should take your medical records and find a good psychologist and go over them with them and see if you can find a correlation.

I am the same as you: unemployable. Why? Because we’re scary. Actually extremely intimidating. Civilians don’t understand people like us.

Now- with that said I went through the same thing. And yes they told me that it was all in my head until I got to the neurologist. They asked me if I was alright but of course I’m going to say I’m fine. I tried to cope and it was hard. I was in therapy and my therapist said let’s check your records again and what we found was from my first anthrax shot, 20 days later I displayed symptoms. The symptoms? Acting out. Blood fueled rage. I was never this person before. They thought I was just a trouble maker. Turns out that wasn’t the case. Because of that I got 100%.

It took me 15 years to figure that out.

They can’t get me a new brain and they can’t get me a new nervous system. You cannot vaccinate against anthrax. It’s in the ground all around us.

That’s what I would recommend. They gave us a lot of shit while we were in and not everything was 100% okay. See what you could find.

Yup. Shot or go to the brig. That was the choice.

Hi Robert! Austin Texas here.

I have a MINI cooper S 2009 and my car has literally been in the shop for repairs almost every 1-2 to "fix" another issue that luckily falls under my extended warranty.

But from 2014- now the car has been in the shop 6 times. Additionally the core that they built for mounting the radiator is made of cheap thin plastic. I love my car and the dealership but when asking the guys at the shop about it they said it was common for 1st and 2nd generations to have issues.

What do I need to know to determine if I have a lemon? Thanks!

Ps I have had 4, 5 and 7 from this link: http://www.britishamericanauto.com/car-repair-education-and-info-blog/bid/88829/7-Common-Repair-Problems-Mini-Cooper-Owners-Face

Thank you! ^{_^}

I'm really torn because I love Mini. But this sucks. I keep joking that by the time I get done paying the car off that it will have a new engine.

I'll follow up on your suggestions.
