To all the people whose diagnosed with PTSD, my heart goes to all of you. You are strong and I'm praying for y'all. I studied psychology because I firmly believe that our mental health is important and should be taken care of.

damn. right
My dad was deployed to Iraq and ge has PTSD and some nights he thinks he's back in Iraq and he shouts his fallen friends and thinks he's hit.
how can you help him though?
@@Lefy2007 You guys should have invited him to come and have dinner with you. Normally socializing slowly but surely cures PTSD since brain slowly adapts to normal human life they have less seizures and less violent outbursts.
I'm pretty sure my Uncle has it he was in the French Foreign Legion and he drank so heavily he's given himself terminal liver cancer
@Q Sent Me PTSD isn't a joke kid
That’s what you get for killing innocent civilians
I had my legs crushed at work and a close friend of mine died also a year after my injury. My resting heart rate is always 95-120 and I get easily irritated and worried by everything. I can’t stand this tachycardia and worried thoughts. I miss my friend a lot and I miss not being on edge always.
Have you tried a non selective Beta-blocker ? See a cardiologist of course first.
Zalem Zabon I saw a cardiologist and he did and ultrasound and ekg during a Tachycardia episode and he said the waves suggest it’s anxiety related and to get a therapists help
Try cbd oil. But embrace the suck. It will save you one day

I used to have PTSD from being physically abused in an orphanage but everything's all better now
(honestly now?.
My best friend served, but he didn't come back how he went. I love him, he's my roommate, but the lack of mental healthcare veterans get is disgusting. I just do what I can to support him, but some days I think he's going to do something he can't undo. It's a serious issue, most people respect and support veterans, but most aren't getting adequate mental healthcare.
If you think it's hard for vets to get help, imagine how hard it is for civilians with PTSD to get help. I've been living with it for almost 25 years, and probably been trying to get help for over 15 of those years.
Ima combat vet, what we went thru sticks to us, my gf always say i dont have emotion and the war fuked me up.
Dude man, I love you Brandon. You were there doing the thing, swapping paint and dealing with the shitshow. I was up in Nangarhar, it was a fuckin' mess -all of it was a mess. The things that made me great in-country were the things that destroyed my relationships back home. Reconnaissance Infantryman, dismounted and all over the place, Iraq and Afghan. I've had my share of things going sideways, we had a C130 crash on our airfield my 2nd day in Afghan, I was convinced I was just going to die there. It took some time, some beers with buddies, just laying out the details with my guys who were there at every shitshow, doing some art, doing some writeups. I got helmet cam of most of the crazy shit but I don't dare watch it, I just produce artwork and write, I talk with my guys who were there, I am committed to living a normal life and just pushing past the crazy shit. Yes, it was crazy. We did shit, we saw shit, we took part in shit, and it was crazy, it doesn't register on any kind of regular civilian scale. I saw a VA psychiatrist for the first time while putting out my claim, I just laid it out there, for the first time in my life I saw a mental healthcare professional and I just threw it all out there without any omissions, and she seemed a little terrified at times but also she cared. It was healing, it meant something, it had value, and it helped me so much. I was too worried about my career to see anybody but after knowing I was getting out, I sought help and it made everything that much better. Please, brothers and sisters, if you're struggling, get some help, I promise you it'll help in ways you won't even realize.
We have got to talk with those who were there, and those who were not. We chose to do this, we volunteered, we raised the right hand. I saw the towers come down and my country attacked, I couldn't stand by and let shit happen, I did some shit, put people in the ground, saw people get burned down, and saw what ISIS left for us in Iraq. But I am not special. I am just a dude, we're in this together, and no matter your branch or time in service, we're brothers and sisters, we all raised the right hand and did this. Our PTSD does NOT have to define our future, we an move forward together and live successful, peaceful lives.
I think you're special, God bless you and thank you man.
I am a former unit guy & all I can say is we’ll said brother, we did our part, that’s all we can do …
We’re in this together, and no matter your branch or time in service, we’re brothers and sisters, we all raised the right hand and did this. That’s a helluva quote. Bless ya
reading your story made me feel like I have someone who understands me.
Holy shit dude.
I always have PTSD and in flight mode all the time and adrenaline rush I never come down from, it's hard to converse with people bc I always want to run or fight! Just keep getting help that all I can say
If you were to tell me you have ptsd i would just hug you, i think most people will do tbe same, let someone know if you are freaking out
Brandon, you can do this! PTSD totally sucks. My therapist manages to keep me in the present when I begin to walk down that very painful road that consumed 55 years of my life. To anyone who suffers with PTSD, please seek therapy. There is life beyond PTSD as smiles return and fear and anger begins to dissolve.
My dad has really bad PTSD and overreacts to the slightest problem. He was in a war zone in the early 70's and also had a traumatic childhood and its only now I can begin to understand why life has been hard at times, and how that trauma has been passed on to me.
I was in Afghanistan in 2009, YOUR NOT ALONE BRANDON!!!
so you feel now that you were on wrong side?
My dad was part of a infantry squad came back from Iraq in 2010 then married y mom 3 years later and some times he wakes up in the middle of the night and scream random military callouts from when his friend got hit by a IED while protecting a MRAP
Me too 10th mountain div
One of the guys I work with is former MP and was deployed 4 times over seas to Afghanistan and Iraq (2 tours per country) every time he wants to talk about it I always make it a point of listening just sitting down and hearing what he has to say just to get it off his chest the smallest thing like this can be the difference between him living and him thinking of ending it all, the latter is the last thing I want for him. Veterans are my conquering hero’s and I treat them accordingly
you are very kind hearted - tnank you for helping the poor fellow
@@thhomasmarks he’s better now, better than he was.
That is a Beautiful Statement. Your the BEST!!! USMC

i am so sorry you have to struggle - I was I preyed upon terribly when I was a little boy and sometimes feel consumed with fear - You are not alone!!!
I'm here struggling here with you bro stay strong!!! Thank you for your service
I wasn't in the Army but my fiance was in I am a witness what he went through in Vietnam. We had been together since my Daughter was 6month's, 2 and half She got shot by him. Stay Strong
0:45 Whoaaa I did that too - EMDR. (Child abuse victim here) It’s very helpful.
So glad that this guy hung on to his light and fought the darkness that was trying to consume him. That darkness had origins in things beyond his control and was forced upon him through the choices of others. And he put an end to that darkness by healing himself. He should be so proud of himself for how far he’s come.❤
Toxic positivity is the worst you can do to someone who had PTSD.
What’s that?
Acting like all is so good.
Bless you and the pain will not go away but you can deal with it and work through it
It took me forever. To understand my family that I wasn't the same person. Still working on it.
He's a good guy give the man a break
THANK YOU FOR EVERYONE'S SERVICES
PTSD is nothing to take lightly. I got two friends who suffer with this disorder. One of my younger friends got deployed to Afghanistan and was head guard at a check point. She told me how she had to shoot women and children that did not comply to her commands. When she returned back to the states, she could not even look at her kids. She is still a soldier in the US military. My next friend who is much older served in Vietnam from 1967 to 1969 and has been in every major battle. He got blown up twice in his tour and has nightmares and flash backs of the events he experienced in Vietnam to this day. He has had suicidal intentions in the past and his most flash backs regard his buddies who was shot and killed right next to him. PTSD is very serious and the VA needs to get war vets the best attention possible ...
I been looking at WW1 videos of "Shell Shook" and the government still is having a hard time finding ways to Care for our brave Vet's 😔😔.
@@killer_bro_empireitsme3613 coward VA. There I fix it for ya
it isn't like a broken bone.. broken bones eventually heal ....I am sad that I was damaged - I have a big heart and like animals music and like to hear kids laughing and playing and wish everyone a happy safe and healthy life
How is she now. Is she much better
I relate to this so much man, I've been suffering with Generalised Anxiety Disorder and PTSD for 2 years now. I know the feeling very well. If anyone has a few moments to spare, on my channel I talk about the importance of mental health and the goal is to spread the word and help others going through what I went through. I'd appreciate the time if you can relate to all these issues. Thank you for listening.
I will definitely look into your channel my son has P.T.S.D and is having a better bad moment at this time I feel helpless that I don't know how to help him cope

I got back from Afghanistan last year as a medic. I remember everything, Afghani soldiers amputated from the knee, 18 year old British soldiers who blew their brains out from self inflicted means... I'm traumatized. I drink nearly every night to forget it. But even in my sober thoughts, I think about the same Afghani soldier who had to have his leg amputated, eating his delicious meal I fetched for him post surgery. I too also grabbed food and ate with him at his bedside in conversation via the translator, discussing words of compassion and wisdom. At the same token, how would you live as a parent of a son who commited suicide? An Afghan warrior reduced to a wheelchair while his family experience the heaven burden of a permanent injury. I'll never forget the experience untill the day I pass away. "Inshallah brother, we all turn to dust and dirt at the end of the day" was what the Afghani soldier told me via the translator as I dropped him off to the Afghani civil ambulance with his leg in one bag.
What are all these wars worth for in the end? Wake up people! War is not the romantic comedy you pictured in the movies. It's real and confrontational when you get back home. All the people you've met over there also return to home and you talk about these experiences from time to time! Real friends talk about emotions and come to you with open arms.
I hope I make sense to some people.

PTSD isn't about mental time travel... they don't need to stay in the present. It has everything to do with the triggers that produce mental images and sounds that fire off into the nervous system, and causes the fight or flight response. It is literally a trance. If we could change the images and begin to disassociate the person to the experience, you can begin to overcome trauma by literally interrupting the pattern that fires off into the nervous system so that it doesn't fire off the same way again.
Nice idea, but how can you do that? Anything in our sorroundings can trigger it, like anything, even in a dream, when i wake up its the first thought, when im not working and have idle time i remember it, my point is u cant do one thing in a day to break the pattern, u cant break the pattern unfortunately thats why they commit suicide coz theres no way things can go bck before this traumatic event happened. Its just impossible, u can take pills today this hour, but later on u will remember it then take pills again, its like insanity, even if you think of something else, like doing a project it still feels like an hour glass, once the sand runs out you go bck getting traumatize, then it repeats again and again, everyday, its hard, the only way i will live another good day again is if i get amnesia or live 10 years from now that those traumatic experience i have are like nothing to me, thats why im still alive, coz i believe years from now im not gona wake up anymore every morning crying for what happened to me, i lost the most important person of my life and its my fault, rip. I accidentally shot him he didnt survived.
i have nothing but appreciation for those who fight for their country. that’s why i am deeply sympathetic to american soldiers who is fighting outside of the country. makes their job even more difficult.
i hope i offend no one by saying usa is one of the most violent country in human history, and they have a built in system of sustaining all volunteer force by systematically gives no choice but to join the military. the veterans suffering is very much man made and intentional.
i am wishing for a world that no one needs to fight.
Look up which nation in history has fought the most battles and won then come back and say a country that has 200 years of existence is more violent than a country that has fought its neighbors for hundreds of years.
You are wrong you clearly speak out of emotion you truly don’t give a shit you wanted to act sympathetic at first to get your real point across which is false hogwash.
@8DFahren Somebody has to instill law and order in poor countries that are unequipped to deal with terrorism. Like it or not, it's the innocent people who pay. Someone has to be the big dog. And I would prefer that it was a Capitalist free country.
Dont worry papa we all here for u what an amazing story
War is a horrendous thing. Poor fellow.
Thanks for sharing ❤
I'm really wanting to join the infantry or some front line army division. I'm looking into PTSD and the risks etc and whether I could deal with it if I did end up with it. To everyone who has served, genuinely, thank you. I know it's said so much but I genuinely appreciate you from the bottom of my heart and I hope one day I can do you all proud.
Maxim Co Technologies Just go and don’t look back. If your in a fire fight, you will get PTSD. It’s part of the game and you will suck it up. Just do it and join ASAP. The longer you put it off, the less you will be motivated to go. You will either be part of history or you will be reading about it 50 yrs from now saying, “ I could have gone but...”. Dude, take it from a 23 yr Iraq war veteran, just go and don’t look back.
@@Mark-yb1sp Yeah I get you. I'm giving myself until the end of year to get in shape and then I will be signing up all things being well. Thank you for sharing your opinion as well. It's reassuring to see that so many people hold such a good view of the forces. I've often thought about what you said as well in regards to the "I could have gone but". I know a lot of older folks who have said this and regretted not doing it. I don't want to be in that position. Stay safe sir!
@@fr33kah9 If you get ptsd , your life will become hell .
Im in the corps..and in the infantry. There aint a war anymore bud. And there probably wont be one for a while, you'll be alright.
Just do what feels right and don’t let anyone talk you out of it.
My severe PTSD fuels my bad habits. I don’t know how to make the hurt and scars and pain to subside without these bad habits

I know a Vietnam vet. One of the simplest yet most terrifying things he once told us after we asked him for some war stories was "..at night it’s really something.. you can’t see anything.. so you can’t tell if your bullets are hitting bodies or trees…" then he walked off. Left me and my buddies atarring at the floor in aww.
What was to awe about??

I have ptsd from a very very traumatic childhood though back then their wasn't a name for it n nothing was really known about it so there was very limited help i had so many sleep studies done on me at just 5 6 7 years old bcuz they thought i had something wrong with my brain it took well over 20 yrs for drs n clinicians to give it a name and offer help through therapy. I still have it but i have to say it's no where near as bad as it was when i was younger. It does get better with therapy and learning coping mechanisms.
🙏🏾
I was never in the army but I experienced PTSD through a terrible car accident that nearly killed me. I spent years in therapy and came out of it thinking it was ok. This past year I lost my best friend of 15 years, my coping mechanism and without her I descended into drug abuse to find a way to ignore my feelings and keep living the calm life I had but it’s not possible unless I go to therapy. I have started CPT this past week and all I can hope for is a change in my life. It’s very very hard, the hardest thing I’ve had to accept in my life but I will not give up and you shouldn’t either. Reading all these comments has made me cry tremendously but it also gives me hope that I can one day sit back and say “I am ok”. Much love to all of you, we got this.
how are you now man?
Doesn‘t come close to what Vets experienced.
For anyone that doesn’t know, ptsd is developed within our own muscle memory. They say 100 hours of combat will break any man, except a psychopath..
i think is more of manic depression?
Iraqi men fought for the freedom of their country 🇮🇶🇮🇶✌️✌️✌️
I totally get it.
Stay strong brothers and sisters...HOOAH!
Ive been with PTSD for years. Apart from terror during conversation i have another problem and is that i cant look into the eyes of someone. It makes me feel in a total conflictive mode. Anyone else?
Pretty much
No one can say anything to you and you take it the wrong way and end up flying off the handle. Worst part is all the anger.
STILL, nobody talks about that sht, it's not just depression and anxiety for some of us, it's a lot of really brutal anger...I been arrested for sht I don't even remember really doing. Part of the reason I don't go around people much because I don't want to hurt anybody else or have someone hurt me. Little stupid sht can set me off to the point I just want to cause damage. I used to not recognize it, years after I got out....I literally thought it wasn't a problem...took me to go to jail to realize I had a serious fvcking issue and my only course of action since has been avoidance...I've tried the techniques the Counselors have suggested, the breathing and all that...literally doesn't work.
@Siegefya it's fucked up man. I can even go on public transport. Literally hell in an inclosed place.
I do that as well man. I've only ever ended up in court once of it but surprised I didn't go down.
I blacked out when I was a teenager in a fight and nearly killed someone. I don't loose it that much no because I know what to look out for.
Had a psychologist a few years back for a while but stopped going. Thought he was going to stitch me up or something. It's scary how your mind can be man.
Always trying to look at things positively and try and let things go but it's like your mind is constantly fighting itself.
I think it's because of the younger generation always complaining that shit is wrong with them that it makes it harder to get anywhere.
Probably a stupid question but you okay?
@@slap_A_flamingo Yeah I'm good man, thanks for asking. I hope you're doing well. Just related to your comment.
@Siegefya glad you're alright man. Yes I'm good. Ploughing on 😁 glad we could relate man.
I need to do cardio sweat workouts twice a day to help my mind

True. Plus a hobby and doing chores. I think we can integrate some Greek & Asian philosophy of living. It isn't religion, it is a way of life. Be safe, be cool.
Your not alone there is alot of people who have PTSD
Ptsd sucks, but in some sense has saved my behind. Always being prepared means you are never surprised. Improvise, adapt, and overcome. On the other hand, it would be nice to sleep without wearing boots and armed to the teeth....
I got PTSD from Minecraft hunger games. I once spawned in a server and ran towards the loot chests. but then saw my best friend gets PWNED by a bow and arrow. I grabbed my diamond sword and had to kill him. Even tho he had REKT my best friend I still felt bad for killing him. I don't really talk about this. No one should have to go through Minecraft hunger games.
@@chientranhvoitoi8820 ptsd is not a joking matter friend. Don't make light of it.
I quit boot camp back in 95 it wasn't for me my best friend went to Iraq and Afghanistan tours one of his bodies was blown up by an IED he has to pick up his bodies dismembered body in put him in s body bag he had a severe mental breakdown and discharged he was the funniest happiest person before now its just the shell of a man all he talks about is death its absolutely heart wrenching how war destroyed so many lives!!
I feel you man! Mosul,iraq 2005. You come home different and stay that way forever.
@@ibnel-khattab3905 Did he? The US government is to blame. Not people on the frontlines
The hyper vigilance wears you down the most. Being constantly on edge thinking you're going to be attacked at all hours of the day and night. Imagine sitting in your house in the middle of the afternoon, alone with your dog, where you should feel the safest, and someone unexpectedly knocks on your door loudly. You grab the gun sitting next to you, because you always have a weapon within reach, and creep up to the door or the window to see who it is, all while listening for other noises and using your sense of smell to pick up on other people who don't belong. Or going to the gast station or grocery store and sitting in your vehicle for sometimes 20 minutes, sometimes a couple hours, watching everyone. Waiting for the foot traffic to die down so you can "make a break for it" and get out of your vehicle to do what you need to do. Or if you do decide to leave your house and go out to dinner with a friend (because going alone is sometimes damn near impossible), you have to make sure the hostess seats you in a corner or somewhere where your back can be against the wall. Then as you're walking to your table, you're visually checking people out, looking for threats, and looking for escape routes. Then while your friend is looking at the menu, you're still watching your surroundings because you feel like they aren't looking out for the dangers that you are and you don't feel safe in order to read the menu. You get upset over the smallest things not going right, because in your mind its a life or death situation, even if its something as ordinary as a shipment being sent to the wrong address or a driver almost causing a fender bender because they were too busy playing on their phone. I seem to be in the fight response category the majority of the time. Sometimes I feel so dangerous that I isolate myself for days or weeks on end and dont leave my house. Not so much to keep myself safe, but for the safety of others. You feel constantly worn down and your body is always sore and in pain with muscle aches like youve been physically fighting all day. You find yourself just staring into nothing. You cant sleep because evey little noise wakes you up. When you do finally fall asleep you have nightmares, then when you wake up from those, you fight falling back asleep because your thoughts are easier to deal with than the bad dreams. You miss the things you used to like to do like going to new places or even doing simple every day things like going to see a movie. You break down in tears when something reminds you of the event or events that caused you to have PTSD in the first place. These are all things I personally deal with, and have been dealing with for over 20 years. If you dont have PTSD and want to know what someone might be experiencing, reread what I wrote every single day and imagine living your life like that.

And of course there’s an advertisement at the end
Mental shocks can be felt early in life. Even in infancy. The damage is traumatic & can cause life long stress. Here’s a poem with an implied cure. Poem's title is “The New One’s Center Had Moved.”
The new one’s center had moved.
The infant’s place of anchor had gone.
Neither the boy nor young man knew.
Their lives were marked as well.
All lost to empty time of living,
Where wisdom & books have no meaning.
They each looked to the man to be.
“Grow up,” The man yelled. “Look out for yourself.”
They all wanted a way back,
Back to the place of beginning.
They asked a fix from him.
“Between the rising & setting sun,”
He exclaimed, “Go to the beginning there.
Breath out the flames which burn your heart.
There your body & voice of being can be found.
A life of quiet, joy & peace.”
Hurry -
The old man is coming!
I'm drinking personally and can't escape
Zalem Zabon detox the body your thoughts aren’t yours

That PTSD is some nasty stuff. It can turn you into a relentless monster even towards your loved ones.
I got off of work one day, and stopped to get gas. A dude came up to me and cold clocked me out if nowhere. We fought around for a while until it was done and over with and he left with his friends. We had problems in school, I guess he still wanted to pursue it. After the incident I didn't see him for another year or so but every time I was waiting in line in a store I would stare that door down and check everyone walking inside. One day I saw the dude, and I immediately charged him. We squashed the beef but I have never been the same again. It changed me
its 3:37 am and im awake and cant get back to sleep, the nightmare never ends!
This type of disorder is known in First Responders as well. Sad
Hey hope your better now
I never had PTSD because if I admit I had a disorder I would need someone besides myself to put me back in order.
That being said...
There IS a way out without going back.
It's not money, I am wealthy now. I got a mortgage free house etc
You see.... I represent you and here is the kicker! Youuu represent me.
This way we are connected. Connected by doing good deeds for the people who are more caged in than they think they are. Hope this will be transparent enough for a good future. Let them whisper.
Legends are always being whispered.
Grow up
My dad was blown into a wall by a mortar but didn’t get PTSD. But for some reason the chef that experienced him getting injured got it. (RAF)
God bless your dad.
God bless you and your family.
I pray that your dad never develops PTSD as it could happened even years later buteither way, know that your dad needs your support and the support of the rest of your family.
Tell your dad thank you for his service and his defense

Thats why I hate when they go to high school and recrude young teenagers by selling them the good things they can have but don't tell them the reality they will go through if they are in a war. As parents we should make our children aware of this and to thing twice before making a decision
I have generalize anxiety disorder and it fell just the same 😔
I was in afghanistan in 09 too. 10th mountain div. Was in Nangahar, kunar and nuristan
I got ptsd from seeing a dark photo 😔 I need a little help

@@sharphealthcare thank you
@@sharphealthcare I am happy to say that I am doin very well now
9:13 PM 10/13/2024 I got diagnosed with PTSD too. I was struggling more with schizophrenia and hallucinations like Im a psychic/remote viewer than roid raging running an extra mile at work in civilian world.
I wasnt always schizophrenic I think everyone knows this. PTSD for me in US Army was working/training with the guys who are Army Rangers or Special Forces with me as regular military infantry. The real Army Rangers who are infantry and usually special force tabbed out. I was suppose to goto RIP/Ranger School back in the day as infantry never happened cus I was wounded and couldnt run due to injuries from Iraq. You had to know the story with me in US Army to understand what Im talking about probably why it was covered up.
PTSD to me for my example is working/training with some NCO/Officer above you holding the Army Ranger "STANDARDS" as the infantry model. Pretend all of us are REGULAR MILITARY infantry (not special forces, yes Army Rangers are special forces as infantry real Army Rangers are infantry). Regular military infantry dont work and train the same as these guys who are Navy SEALs and Army Rangers (infantry). In a regular military unit those guys holding themselves above regular military are most likely special forces they are the real deal not some overrated guy thinking hes hardcore. What happened with me I got use to running an extra mile working/training with those Navy SEAL types or Army Rangers (infantry) or Force Recon guys in USMC. Just bring all the special forces in here cus this is what I meant by "standards". Special forces guys know what Im talking about I was speaking their language you dont talk about this.
I got use to working and training with these guys that are too hoah (is what we called it too) for rest of US Army. But the curve ball was its a regular army infantry unit this wasnt like 10th Group or 5th Group Special Forces or 75th Ranger regiment with Ranger Battalion. I didnt fit in with rest of regular army is what they would call it after going through this training and working with guys that are special force tabbed as infantry cus Im use to running 8 miles or more when everyone stopped at 2 or 4 miles. Thats what they meant by PTSD. You have to lower yourself after going through this going off the NCOs and officers above you not a rank thing but the way you handle yourself.
I know I was the same way about "running an extra mile" too. Thats suppose to be with the guys above regular military like Army Rangers (infantry) not regular infantry units. I expected special forces to work/train like this not regular infantry units.
Thats what PTSD is. Its all of us that kept going cus we were use to this (running an extra mile). Thats my take on it too.
To all who are seeing this comment:
The solution is simple and it works.
Accept…. - we are human, we make mistakes, dont be too hard, accept the fast
Forget…. - Forget the problem, appreciate the lessons.
Make friends/talk to anybody….. - this takes time because most people wanted to be alone.. being alone makes PTSD and panic attacks to control you more… you have to control your mind.
Get a hobby….. - to makes you focus on other things…
Exercise…. - challenge yourself
Love yourself…. - one life to live, always remember, it is your life.
Pray…. - this is actually better because you can just say, “God, you know who I am and what I am suffering. I will let you handle my life, I will not worry about anything anymore.”
Accept Death….. Death is unavoidable. If it is your time, you cant do anything about it… do not worry. Enjoy life.
When you feel like you cant do anything because you have that feeling of fear, do it…
It takes time….. but one step at a time will slowly change your mindset…
It is only mindset and brain
You have to trick your brain….”CONTROL YOUR MIND, not the other way around. “
Goodluck.
Easier said than done. After 50 years living with ptsd is what I am

9:07 PM 10/13/2024 I didnt watch the video. Okay so PTSD? I wont pick on anyone. So what was I suppose to be like?
If I was to get PTSD taken off record cool. I wasnt mad about this. I guess I will have to go back to work then.
They edit this shit like hes a madman or insane
everyone:
the whole multiverse:
*ppl with PTSD: Somethings wrong I can feel it*
DON'T SCARE PEOPLE LIKE THIS WHILE THEY'RE SLEEPING 💥🔫👀I'M WARNING YOU DOOON'T DO IT
is that covered by health insurance or not?
I live in a neutral country, so we generally don't have veterans that need treatment, and even so, if you need help you can get it with social healthcare
and maybe this time america keeps it's hands out of the current conflict, I'm really worried that something bad might happen when they start to mess with stuff that's none of their business
Hello Nathan,
For coverage questions, please contact your insurance provider.
Thank you,
Lesley
@@sharphealthcare ah yes, an automated response
the marvels of the 21th century.....
Yes, any service related injuries, to include PTSD, are covered for life by the Veteran Affairs medical system.
😥
All for fighting a stupid Halliburton's War.
This video should NOT tell people or give them the idea that PTSD can be defeated. It's just wrong to lead people to believe that. Whomever came up with that ridiculous line of thinking has obviously never been in a combat scenario.

Beautiful, hopefully all other American and British soldiers end up like this 😂
Always remember to repent of your sins (sin is transgression of YAHUAH The Father In Heaven’s LAW: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, & Deuteronomy) And Have Belief On Yahusha The Messiah. HE Died and Rose three days later so that you can be forgiven of your sins!
HE Loves you! Come to HIM🙂🙂
This is good, but the only way to really be helped is by coming to Jesus. He is the only one who can truly help all people not just combat vets. Praying for this man, but for all of us in this world.
Would Jesus help a man who was killing innocent women, children, and elderly civilians? A man fighting a country on another continent, and this country has no relation to the United States.
Be heatlhy!
A average US soldier has 20k dollars in equipment, ultra hi tech, with constant navy support, 3 full meals a day, constant medical care. Fighting against Taliban with Chinese AK-47 that costs 300 bucks couses disability among the soliders. I think something is going wrong with American society and individuals as well
Wow, that really is powerful. I feel as if our society really doesn't care or know how important this is.
Taliban soldiers fighting for their homeland despite being radical, this make it easier for them to stay cool in war, also look ay Yemeni soldiers, they've lost everything but except their hope.
because Usa were on wrong side

Fuck it let's go find some pills.

It's an occupational risk. What a stupid comment

Mocking people, it only wrongs the soul of the one commiting the act.
