Wanna know the science behind this? Look up panic induced depersonalization/derealization. Then after that look up dissociative disorder. Basically after a major panic attack, your brain can dissociate reality, your surroundings, your body, thoughts, feelings, and everything you know in existence will be decreased as a way for your brain to cope with the stress. Keep in mind though that this is not a fun experience as this can last for weeks, months, years, decades, and even lifetime in some circumstances. It is treatable not curable. Once again, 24/7 disassociation otherwise know to a normal person as “Zoning out”. Basically the closest thing I have felt in my own personal experience before experiencing this is driving and zoning out yet being fully capable and aware of what I am doing. This is not a joke and not to be played or toyed with. It is very serious and traumatic. Have a good day.

They see scattered body parts, beheaded individuals, others crying, someone praying, while you are there, fighting the thoughts of whether to go home to see your family again or die for the country.
😢Leviticus 18:22 KJV Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination. Ephesians 6:10-18 says, Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; and your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints. The bible is no old book. You have to really let Christ open your eyes; to see the world in shambles. Many people say it's a religion to lock up people in chains, and say it's a rule book.. why? Because people hate hearing the truth, it hurts their flesh, it's hurts their pride, it's exposes on what things have they done..people love this world so much, s*x, money, power, women, supercars.. things of this world. Still trying to find something that can fill that emptiness in your heart. You can't find that in this world.. only in Christ, the bible is no chains, it's a chainbreaker. Breaking your sins into pieces... Repent now, and turn back to the true Lord only.. God bless.
I have lived this. Not from war. But derealization and depersonalization are terrifying. I felt like I wasn't me. It wasn't my body and I just was a spectator of my own life, trapped in my head forever.
My buddies only 23 and he has it. He's EMS and he just has this look in his eyes where you can tell hes not quite there. He works in the Chicago area, so he sees a LOT of violent things.
If you don’t know the The “1,000-yard stare” is a term often used to describe a distant, vacant gaze that reflects a person’s deep and intense psychological or emotional experiences. It originated in the context of war and combat, where soldiers who had experienced the traumatic and harrowing aspects of war might exhibit such a distant and haunted look. The term suggests that the person is mentally and emotionally detached or absorbed in memories or thoughts related to intense experiences. While it has military origins, the concept has been used more broadly to describe the distant gaze associated with various forms of trauma or profound emotional distress
Lost in their mind. Some don't return back to normal and remain lost in their minds. Its sad but you can't go to war and have normal human feelings. You have to have a heartless mindset tbh. Sad but true. How i survived
Truth. I hate when war vets tell me my cptsd isn't real because I was never in the military. (Lots of military in my husband's family, including my husband.) I was never in a war, but growing up felt like war. I won't explain the details, it was incredibly gruesome and not for a public forum, involving physical and sexual abuse, death/murder, psychological torture, and worse, and I lived like that for 20 years of my life. I'm 33 now, and I've been told I get the same look in my eye when a man raises his voice, someone surprises me by unexpectedly leaping out, yelling, or touching me, etc. Not saying its exactly the same, I have a lot of compassion for our combat vets, they see some horrific things. But it can have a very similar effect.
i know exactly how you feel and im sorry that you had that experience. i hope someday all these worries of your go away. these experiences can be very damaging
I dont find it funny at all. Especially the ones who comment on this ‘thousand yard stare’. It’s an effect of panic induced depersonalization/derealization and it’s not something you wanna experience and can last anywhere from weeks, to years, to a lifetime after a panic attack or a trauma response. The thing is, it only gets worse with people who have it because with every ptsd attack you fall deeper into the rabbit hole of losing touch with reality. Everything seems like a dream. Closest thing I can describe it as a feeling is when your dreaming and you know your dreaming and your dream is not pleasant. It’s the pure feeling of wanting to “wake up” while being fully awake. This is why people go scientifically go insane. Panic induced stress. It can make you lose touch with reality as it comes with memory loss, delusions, hallucinations, violent tendencies, loss of morals, etc. . And it is not something to brag about. This is not a bragging manner. I hope I could spread some awareness. Have a good day
@@blinkzth its all good bro lol. I just try to spread some knowledge around yk? The more you know, the more peace that you can obtain. Stay blessed bro☺️
I am not making fun of anyone, its just I think that the second guy grew up to be New York’s greatest sorcerer, man looks exactly like a young Benedict Cumberbatch
I've been told "you look like you can see 1000 miles". Even when I talk to people I try to hide my eyes because I scare them. I literally watch their face melt in fear and they walk away. So I feel like a weirdo for even existing but then again it goes away when my head start thinking about crazy scenarios that could happen but the chances are 1%. I don't need help but I have noticed something in me is different and I can't put it into words.
Bruhhh this comment resembles me so much If i stare someone in the eyes i am afraid they might start shaking or panicking literally. So i usually don’t make eye contact
Those "crazy scenarios" are known as intrusive thoughts. Also just as you described, you might think of doing something bad, you might have intrusive thoughts about hurting someone or yourself, sexual unwanted thoughts, etc. Intrusive thoughts dont affect your actions, just like you said you keep thinking about crazy stuff, but it doesn't happen. It's a great description of what an intrusive thoughts/unwantwd thought is. It's normal to have them from time to time, most of us do, but if it's very often and you think it affects you, then something might be up. I only know it's associated with OCD or BPD. I could be wrong, and there could be other things associated with it, but yeah like I said, if you struggle from those intrusive thoughts it won't hurt to seek for a psychologist
@@unpopularskyler7494this was a very nice, informative comment for people who don’t understand what struggling with intrusive and or unwanted thoughts is like.
I have it and its the worse and it can drive you crazy. What happens to my vision, even though its 20/20 is that I cant focus on whats in front of me no more.. The focus has switched to the side of my eyes so I'm looking sideways now. The vision in front of you is blurred out and things stand out more to the side of your vision that what is in front of you.
Growing up the way I did caused mine. People still snap me out of it now and then. Im not really thinking about anything either. It’s just like blank spots in my day.
The eyes are the window to the soul. These poor men need the holy spirt and prayer and love. I feel so bad for them. Ive had panic attacks before so bad Id almost pass out. And I wouldnt know why. And I would not associate with anything I would be so lost and feel like my stomach dropped into my knees. I was only 10.
A lot of times its not because of what they have seen but because of the long brutal hours, the intense focus and needing to stay on ur A game, It’s almost like the human body hitting ketosis, hunger just vanishes for them sleep and exhaustion vanishes and the mission is all that exists, when my father came back he broke down apologizing to me and my mom and we were so confused after he settled down a bit he revealed that once he hit that mindset we didnt exist, it was his brothers and the mission, his country didnt exist, we didnt exist nothing but the mission and even on the ride home he said felt like he was on autopilot and when our dog excitedly went to greet him he snapped back to reality and realised he was finally home
This is known as the "1000 yard stare" but otherwise known as ptsd (post traumatic stress disorder). It’s possible to trigger the PTSD when u have either experienced or even witnessed a terrifying event. The symptoms of PTSD may include flashbacks, nightmares, and severe anxiety, as well as uncontrollable thoughts about the event
The last picture that guys eyes exactly the same as my brother before he passed away 3 years ago the difference is at last 2 minutes my brother's eyes looked like heaven was in them his 2nd to last word was mom as she was holding his head kissing him his very last word was wow and his expression was also in astonishment . Since then I feel a extremely strong desire to follow Jesus give up my ways and follow his . This has become very hard part of my life but god never said it would be easy god only said it would be worth it !
The thousand-yard stare (also referred to as two-thousand-yard stare, combat shock, or shell shock) is a phrase often used to describe the blank, unfocused gaze of combatants who have become emotionally detached from the traumatizing things around them. It is sometimes used more generally to describe the look of dissociation among victims of other types of trauma.
God bless all the soldiers who had to go through that and are still going through that I don’t know what I would feel but I think I would feel like there’s no more happiness in the world and I would never want someone to feel like that so help me bless them
Reminds me of that chilling scene from American Sniper where the main character sits on an armchair in the living room facing the TV and the sounds of war can be heard. At first it looks like he's watching TV, but when the camera moves behind his shoulder, you see that the TV is off.
My dad had severe PTSD. He use to have big, blue eyes full of character and emotion, but after what happened, his eyes looked like the dude in that last pic. Even the blue in his eyes whitening.
to make it more specific The thousand yard stare is When people see their friend/parents/siblings die infront of their face they've seen some things...
I dont think i experienced something quite as bad, but i remember that when i found out that all of my chicken s got killed by a fox i zoned out and my family that was with me said that i looked like im looking straight into a a black hole
I played a vr game abt that exact guy in war,my whole personality changed abt how my life is miserable when I don’t get something I want. I feel so bad for those young men, and yes it was very bloody and realistic,they had the same missions and stuff that he did, I wish no one would ever face this.😢
I have this happen i loose control and i zone out and sometimes i need to be shaken to get control back because i get lost in thought and yes it can cause anxiety spikes so
We get looks like we're freaks sometimes when we "zone out". We just go back to a place and time that things weren't that great. These are great examples
My uncle got thousands yatd stare He is not a soldier But he studied Pre degree computer science CBSE JEE brilliants BSC astrophysics MSC astrophysics PHD in America But never got his job .... 💀
I have depersonalization and i think its because hanging with the wrong people, my cousin and i were almost shot down but God kept us safe somehow...whole body went cold...it gets me in the mornings and it getting worse but yeah...that fear and plus some stuff ive seen, it will do it to you no matter if you want it to or not.
At school we had this game, "lapse" we called it, when if someone was discovered in a "thousand yards stare" moment someone had to say "Lapse" and we all had to stare at him until he came to himself and discovered us all looking at him.
This happens to soldiers that have seen there families getting killed and every one getting murdered in front of them. Hers an example “you have 10 families, and they die 1 by 1 infront of you which makes your brain feel like its in a loop, which develops a thousand yard stare, and doing this at people makes them say “you look weird”. So if some people like friends or family are gonna get killed, dont look.
The first photo is of Pvt Theodore James Miller just after two days of heavy fighting during the battle of Eniwetok. He died a month later in 1944. He was 19 years old.
When my mental state was deteriorating due to extreme stress/anxiety , I’d try to play games or watch videos… but it’s as if I was looking right through the screen. I’m happy to say I’m better now 🙂.
name of the guy in the first photo is Theodore James Miller, he was a 19-yr old who served in WW2, if correct he was the inspiration for the “Marines Call It That 2,000 Yard Stare” painting
I’m going to be honest I genuinely got this from a love live school idol project Twitter account (no seriously everyone who shows up on down bad love live tweets should be sent to jail right away)
For those who think “The thousand yard stare” is just a clever title, it’s actually a condition. A 1000 yard stare is a soldier who is so insanely, horrifically, unbelievably traumatized that they have lost all emotion, train of thought, or generally lost their mind. Their mind is in a state of paralysis, and they can’t do much but stare into the distance. The only way to recover from this insane torture is by years of therapy, or staying away from war for many, many, many years. They will be traumatized for a long time.
I have that i was traumatazide of my neighbors getting stabbed i saw them i went inside i saw a pool of blood i was so scared i froze to fear i was so scared

Btw the guy in the first photo was KIA, he was only 19, his name was Theodore James Miller.
idk why but the first guy kinda looks like actual idksterling
War is hell we soldiers know this better than anyone we all have thousands year stare
I played a vr game abt that exact guy in war,my whole personality changed abt how my life is miserable when I don’t get something I want. I feel so bad for those young men, and yes it was very bloody and realistic,they had the same missions and stuff that he did, I wish no one would ever face this.😢
It’s a disconnect from reality, here on this realm physically but mentally lost
These soliders are staring into my soul
I recall the pictures
This one looks at you
This one looks through you
Us Morticians have this issue also
I have this happen i loose control and i zone out and sometimes i need to be shaken to get control back because i get lost in thought and yes it can cause anxiety spikes so
We get looks like we're freaks sometimes when we "zone out". We just go back to a place and time that things weren't that great. These are great examples

Soldiers are really hard and very traumatic jobs, but people know only little about them.
Hope everyone is doing good. Sending support, love, and hearts.❤️❤️❤️ Stay safe
Also looking at their eyes activites the uncanny valley for me.
I have depersonalization and i think its because hanging with the wrong people, my cousin and i were almost shot down but God kept us safe somehow...whole body went cold...it gets me in the mornings and it getting worse but yeah...that fear and plus some stuff ive seen, it will do it to you no matter if you want it to or not.
At school we had this game, "lapse" we called it, when if someone was discovered in a "thousand yards stare" moment someone had to say "Lapse" and we all had to stare at him until he came to himself and discovered us all looking at him.
That's F,ing creepy
I have been at war with family induced trauma/PTSD and I’m out here like😳
I mean, I see what is terrifying like imagine you’re in d day and you see your friend, and his face explodes
First guy was just looking at the camera
This happens to soldiers that have seen there families getting killed and every one getting murdered in front of them. Hers an example “you have 10 families, and they die 1 by 1 infront of you which makes your brain feel like its in a loop, which develops a thousand yard stare, and doing this at people makes them say “you look weird”. So if some people like friends or family are gonna get killed, dont look.
Eh? I do not think American soldiers go through that lol. They are cause it..
I think it's just staring at something very far about thousands yards away...
The first photo is of Pvt Theodore James Miller just after two days of heavy fighting during the battle of Eniwetok.
He died a month later in 1944. He was 19 years old.
As a veteran i wish this wasn't memed as much
I'm no soldier, but, i feel like i fit in between the 2nd and the 3rd photos
I work at a veterans home and some of the veterans will flash back and have that same exact state PTSD is no joke they relive it every single day
The least they can do after giving unsuspecting innocents hell in a foreign countries
Finally a video without the “ohohoho mrreeaaww” audio
They got that light skin stare
My dad was in Afghanistan. He survived the war but because of the trauma he got addicted to drugs and overdosed. He died.
Meh
He shouldn't be there in the first place. Like a virus in a human body
When my mental state was deteriorating due to extreme stress/anxiety , I’d try to play games or watch videos… but it’s as if I was looking right through the screen. I’m happy to say I’m better now 🙂.
Eyes that have seen something no other person should
name of the guy in the first photo is Theodore James Miller, he was a 19-yr old who served in WW2, if correct he was the inspiration for the “Marines Call It That 2,000 Yard Stare” painting
He died shortly after the photo was taken
Top 3 biggest scary eyes

For those who think “The thousand yard stare” is just a clever title, it’s actually a condition. A 1000 yard stare is a soldier who is so insanely, horrifically, unbelievably traumatized that they have lost all emotion, train of thought, or generally lost their mind. Their mind is in a state of paralysis, and they can’t do much but stare into the distance. The only way to recover from this insane torture is by years of therapy, or staying away from war for many, many, many years. They will be traumatized for a long time.
It’s like you trying to see pass it, you can’t not see it.
bro I do this all the time (not as serious) at school 😭💀
Me after my childhood
Music is creepier than the thousand yard stare
Either my friends and I all have thousand yard states from growing up in the hood or we are just exhausted and barely present.
