Many times it can be a good excuse, but it's up to you when it comes to deciding when it is or isn't appropriate anymore. I can't count how many of my friends are in the desert right now, sound asleep, worried about tomorrow. I don't want them over there, but I understand why they went. I understand why they signed up, and I understand that it put them in an indescribable, unrelatable situation.
If you feel like it's holding you back, then maybe you should reexamine your philosophy about this stuff. I wish you the best of luck, and it might help to keep talking it out.
