"My job is stopping my war hero husband from committing suicide."

- What’s it like living with someone who contemplates suicide on a regular basis?
Tanya Harrison knows. She’s married to Sergeant Craig Harrison, a former Army sniper who, during a 23-year military career, once held the record for the longest kill in combat. Craig was medically discharged with complex PTSD in 2013 and has suffered with debilitating mental trauma ever since.
He spoke with brutal honesty and raw emotion about his issues in a recent Veterans’ Foundation film. Now it’s time to hear from his wife, Tanya - one of the many unsung heroes who live with partners who battle the psychological damage caused by what they’ve experienced during active service.

@@LilXancheXit's got nothing to do with looks.
Hang in there brother. I'been out for 20 years now and with help from my wife, counseling and family it only got better. One small victory at a time.
Did you find counseling works?
I refused, I just want to bury it all.
I never understood why my grandfather refused to talk about being deployed until Iraq.
I speak to my old muckers to an extent but never wife and family.
I have been with my wife 20yrs though. She simply lets me vent, she knows nothing is ever physical or directed at her.
I suppose entering a family business helps keep my mind busy yet not on those dark days the ones why I think why not me
@@salahad-din4114 Ive waited a long time, almost 15 years to talk to a MD. I was lucky, I guess, the pils helped me to sleep better and stop focusing on the « stuff » that hapened. The real healing started when I realise that Ive never talked about it with my wife…It took a great weight of my mind. Plus she did better understand my moods. Hope it makes some sens Brother!
@@salahad-din4114why you and all veterans dont want to talk ?
burying only makes it worse. because it's still there.

It's great to see a couple talking so openly about their feelings and how PTSD has impacted their relationship. Most people would be too scared to say what they said in front of their partner, but that just shows how much they love and trust each other. It's so rare to see that.

I have seen several videos with Craig. Humble, decent, caring, stoic. As a vet myself, it just made my life a little better to know that he has such a wonderful person besides him. Thank you Tanya for being strong for someone who has been strong for others for 20 years.

She's a damn good woman. Hang in there brother. We all fight this fight(combat vets), and we can overcome it.
Thank you for standing by your husband with PTSD. I served in the US Army and was medically retired in 2013 as well for PTSD. My own family doesn’t understand what I go through and most people that I try dating, as soon as they find out I have PTSD-they run away. I feel like I’m fighting this battle on my own and I also have a 6 year special needs child that needs me but at times I can’t be there for her. Again thank you for speaking out and for supporting your husband.
Bless you Julie. Hang in there. We need you and thank you for your service.

@@rizzinyermum aren’t you a ray of sunshine. If you don’t have anything nice to say, keep your mouth shut.
I'm also a Veteran (American) with PTSD and the baggage that goes with it. My wonderful Wife (children, grandchildren) are the main reason I choose to stay on the planet. Not feeling as though I have a real purpose is the most depressing thing I face, so it seems to be a universal symptom we all grapple with. Hope things get and stay better for this family and the families of all, particularly the ones who experienced combat and are suffering residuals from their experiences.
I’m astonished at the multitudes of veterans who are back home, experiencing such debilitating PTSDs. I don’t wonder why they suffer like this. They’ve been through unimaginable violence and terror. War is brutal beyond description. This woman is a gem, helping out and loving her husband as she does. I hope life gets easier and better for them both.
I can't understand why boys are told to be strong and not to cry. I have great respect for men who are able to cry when they are faced with an emotionally painful situation.
My very best wishes to both of you. Your wife is an angel.
Your not a burden craig just a bloke whos been in shit situations its about the man next to you and you did what you had to and hey your still here thats a war you win everyday and it makes the angels proud Crying is the key or that pain turns to anger and numbness crying makes all the good stuff possible again nature is smart it knows trauma is a part of life and crying vents out all that energy every second of crying is progress where a team Craig all of us and im glad your still here

Thank You Craig for your service, your sacrifices. Today, here in Arnhem we memorize Operation Market Garden (September 1944). Unimaginable the price paid by so many brave British and Polish soldiers for the freedom we have today. I cross the bridge almost every day, and each time it reminds me how fortunate I am, and it inspires me to do everything I can to live my best life.

Craig used to be my "idol" when I wanted to join the army as a teen. (Un)fortunately, my health didn't let me. Seeing him like this and imagining I could have been in the same spot. He earned so much more respect, not as a soldier, but as a man. Thank you Tanya for looking after him.
My brother….welcome home. Im 72, Vietnam 1969-71 100%ptsd. You have a good woman…welcome home.
You are not alone.
Both my biological father and my stepfather (my actual dad) both served upwards of 20+ years in the RAF. My dad was a medic and served multiple tours during his service. My mum and him have been together 24 years today. Since he was medically discharged with scholiosis many years ago he is no longer the same man. The trauma and suffering he goes through daily is unimaginable and my heart breaks for him. The support and loyalty my mum provides to him is commendable. While i think he will never fully recover he has given alot of support to the vererans charity and continues to fight. My heart goes out to our forgotten veterans who have fought so bravely, even after their career is over.
You don't have to be sorry mate, not at all, people like you gave your lives up so we can live in a more secure world. You have an amazing wife who loves you dearly, absolute respect.
A more secure world? You can't be serious 🤮😠🥴👀👎

That is a real woman right there. Most women today would just leave that man.
Wow.... what a woman! Much respect.
They are both heroes and should both be treated as such by this country and government. God bless u both and keep fighting the fight, with us all by your side.

Amazing woman. I wish you both all the happiness and peace in the world.
Been following interviews of Craig for some time. First time hearing from his amazing wife. Thank you for all that you do keeping him in this world. Your fantastic. Keep fighting big man. Wish you both the very best.
The courage it has took this man right here to be here in front of us and to share such raw emotions is beyond what 99 percent of us will ever understand in our life time. Nothing but love and respect to Craig. You are true inspiration to me and i am certain many others. Swift and bold.
What a pair of warriors! Stay strong brother you are an inspiration to soooo many!
Improvise, adapt and overcome this is the way. 💪
This is true, unconditional love
So powered and wise. Both of you. Craig, you an stop apologizing and beating yourself up. Use that energy to focus of recognizing things like triggers, and making them easier to deal with and prevent them step by step. Take the energy and turn it into knowledge of what a wonderful and incredible human being you are. You both are. We love you brother
Craig, I so admire your strength (whether you believe you have it or not, you do) and your willingness to persevere. I can’t imagine what you are going through, but know this….you definitely have a purpose in life. You and your incredible wife are working hard to be there for other people suffering with this disease. I believe everyone has purpose and you are where you are at given time because that’s where you’re supposed to be.
Much love and prayers to you and your family 💕💕🙏🙏
My heart goes out to all veterans going through this. And much love to all the wives/husbands/partners that stick by their side ❤❤❤
Stay with it Craig, the road is challenging but you have got this. Tanya and you are the unit now and together is stronger.
My partner of five years has very debilitating disabilities that totally shut down any hopes for intimacy, most types of outings, jobs, etc. We also both have CPTSD and have episodes of shutdown and dissociation. This video is beautiful because it brings light to the relationships that require a lot of effort because of events we can't control. With love, we may always find a way. My heart goes out to Craig and Tanya and you've definitely inspired countless, including myself. Sent this to my partner because Tanya reminds me of her and Craig of myself.
Lastly, in terms of purpose, Tanya is absolutely right when she tells him that she's his purpose. It isn't a slight, an act of arrogance, or self-centered projection; if it weren't for my partner, I probably wouldn't be here, either. Our purpose is what matters to us, whatever or whoever that is. Luckily you two and your purpose make the world a better place. May you one day feel a warm pride for your perseverance and mutual care.
Thank you for your service Craig and welcome home!! I appreciate men like you and women like your wife!! Keep up the good work in getting the support that you need my friend!! Hang in there and know that you're not alone and never will be alone!!!! Hugs from a family member of several U.S. military veterans!!!!
Thank you for staying with your man. You’re a good strong woman.
You are a hero. Your wife too. God bless you and your family from you 🇺🇸brother across the pond!
She is a LIONESS! Best of hope and luck Craig ❤
Hang in there, brother. It's tough but you've one awesome reason to still be here on earth. Your wife is a godsend to you. She's one in a trillion. Her shining love for you is your inspiration to keep saying you're sorry and never forget to include three words "I love you" that I can guarantee she loves to hear from you. Semper Fidelis.
What I just saw is the deepest kind of love i’ve ever seen. I wish you all the best and hope you will get over it and have a bright future. You’re an amazing couple and it shows me that nothing can destroy real love and support for each other. Thanks for sharing something from your private life. 🙏
I had complex PTSD and was suffering daily since my son took his life. I know this isn’t the same as Craig but I had EMDR treatment and it helped me so much. I was skeptical of it but I know I wouldn’t be here If I didn’t try it.
What the heck is EMDR?
I have tried the EMDR and it was not successful for my PTSD. It’s great that it has helped you though.
much love and respect to you Mr Harrison, you're an absolute warrior in every respect!! the strength you show every day is amazing god bless you sir. and God bless you're wife for being you're safe place, and support each and every day, she clearly has strength beyond measure and boundless love for her husband and family, prayers and love for you all god bless you !!! “You are not the darkness you endured.
You are the light that refused to surrender.”

Most people have not a clue what you have been through, yourself your wife and family. I am from Australia and stumbled across your video. I dont know you at all but the video had me welled up. Believe me you going on and sharing your story I gaurentee you will be helping thousands of people. You have every reason to be 100 percent proud of who you are. Your wife is also an absolute awesome person. She alone is every reason for you to continue in life. Please be proud of yourself
I've watched his story on multiple different channels. He is better in this world then not. I hope and pray he finds his peace. God bless our soldiers, veterans, and there families.
Thank you for your service Craig.
Service?!You must be kidding. What business did he have on the other side of the globe, to begin with? Was he looking for non-existent Iraqi WMDs? Such bullshit!
@@erikmajaron1247 i did'nt see you in a war
@@eckoruOh, that's because I just don't go to stupid wars waged for some old farts' profit. Why do you? Can't you see behind the screens? Are you that gullible?
I love this man! Hes brave as ever for talking about his mental health issues. Fair play to his misses to. Nice couple
This had me in tears. PTSD is living hell. His girl is the strongest angel for standing by him. Love and respect. I wish you guys all the best.
She is incredibly strong.
You got a queen by your side
Please, please, please stay strong. I'm from Northern Ireland, and my heart goes out for you both. Please Craig one day at a time.❤
i cried my way through watching you two. i have similar issues, and hope i can find my Tanya. good luck. much love. thankyou
Believe me when I say there are so many of us in the UK that are really proud of our boys & girls that protect our little island. You all have done, or do an amazing job and rotating back to civilian life can be really hard for you. My grandfather suffered with shell shock and PTSD from WWII. He couldn’t watch graphic scenes in war films. He would just curl up in a ball and cry. Although things are moving forward with regards to recognising PTSD in our service men & women, I do think it needs to move a bit faster. Please, do not let the darkness take hold. Don’t ever feel ashamed to cry or be scared. There are more people out there who understand than you think. Please, please, please talk to someone and get the help you deserve.
What a loving wife you are, be proud. Craig if you did not fight every day you would be front page news having a shoot out somewhere. So fight. Concentrate on your land that is your calling now always remember to be kind to yourself and get another yorkie. Much love to you both
Craig first of all a massive thank you for serving our country and the bravery in sharing your journey with ptsd by doing this you and your beautiful wife will help so many others sending you both ❤ and 🙏 day at a time Craig 👏🏴
I have complex PTSD and your relationship is a mirror of mine. Respect to all the strong women and men fighting together.
My son was diagnosed with CPTSD and alcoholism. He was a shell of a man. He attempted suicide four times.
Today, he is clear headed, actively raising four children, and is active at his church.
It’s a day to day recalibration, but he is succeeding.
Bottom line - Jesus saves!
I've seen another interview with Craig where people left some horrible comments about him , it was disgusting to see, this man is incredibly brave for the horrific thing's he's seen and gone through.
He deserves nothing but the highest levels of respect for being so open and honest about how he suffers everyday and tries to cope with suicidal thoughts, i know how that feels ive tried it several times in my life .
I hope he keeps fighting it and finds some happiness and becomes better at coping.
NOTHING BUT RESPECT AND LOVE FOR YOU CRAIG ❤️ ❤
Bunch of keyboard cowards.
What a legendary couple. A million good things wouldn’t be enough for the both of them , every good thing is earned.
Absolutely amazing couple. What a lesson to us all. Such courage. Such strength.
As hard as this might sound. If you join the military you should be aware of the consequeces. More than 7% of veterans are diagnosed to be struggeling with some form of PTSD. No money in the world would make me go to war and possible lose my mental health. If you have kids make sure they know about this and stay out of this man made madness. I hope he gets well soon.
Not everyone in the military has mental health problems. You only hear about the ones who have.
If everyone said no like you and aren’t willing to risk it, then who will?
@@Thatbeardedguy86 That's why less than 1-5% of the country enlists.
@@Thatbeardedguy86 No one we don't need to send any more young folks to die in the wars a bunch of old fucks made.
Very true. I enlisted at 17. Didn't have many options to do otherwise. My young mind did not think of those kinds of consequences, nor was there a war going on when I enlisted. I did my time, served my country no questions asked. For 8 years I was in war. I'm proud of my service but that's an experience I don't wish on anyone.
