I am reaching out to you as a veteran with major concerns with the government's systemic failures and the physical trauma caused to veterans due there severe lack in education. I am truly disheartened and at a loss for words. I am specifically reaching out to you because I believe you are one of the few with an intelligence level that may understand. I have assembled all my data as clearly as I could on a website. Please review Thank you. Www.usvaw.org
So the basic interpretation of what you speak. The V.A wants depressed toxic veterans for the sake of studies and profits. The VA does not want uplifted, happy, pain relief for veterans by using simply 2 atoms found abbundent in nature and whip cream and legal. 1 Hydrogen atom and 2 oxygen atoms.
So this failure as forced veterans to use CO2. This conigtive dissonance really needs to end. I have watch this go on for over a decade now. Makes my heart weep.

Shame on all of you. Let's get ourselves educated to prevent these disheartening behaviors in our communities. Sothe basic interpretation of what you speak.

When my dad was in Iraq the base next to him and bombs hidden in it and when he was sleeping he woke up to a loud bang and there were sirens when he got outside to his turret station there was fire the entire base in flames, and my mom told me one year after he got out of the military they were at a campground for the 4th of July and when fireworks started going off he yelled get down and pushed my mom down to the ground, and when there are loud bangs or gunshots he still has those reactions sometimes
M
My grandpa will shake everytime he watches war documentary or hear firework, it's sad he have seen some stuff from Nam
My DAD 🤣🤣
Mad, sad, scared, guilty, lonely, discouraged, worthless, left behind. Those are my feelings, and today im having a very bad day.
Thank you for your service bro keep your head up man you got this
@@k4zf514 Thank you for your words. ❤️
You have it for life.
Always make the most of help for yourself. It pays off
“Get to the VA and just talk somebody” That’s the hardest part
The VA is the nightmare. The rest of society are the minions.
VA is run by Liberals - ill pass
It made me cry. Idk. :( Sending those soldiers a virtual hug.
Thanks for posting this. I interviewed one of your veterans pictured here as well, and he provided some good detail on how we don't just "move on" from PTSD, but we continue to *move forward* by intentionally taking advantage of the many resources, tools, and skills that are out there. We don't choose trauma, but we can choose how we respond to it. It can break you, or you can be broken open and use it to become a more intentional, compassionate, focused individual. @warriorsroundtable
Something interesting about PTSD was that it never fully heals or goes away. It sucks...
Meh Go get in the front lines yourself. Then repeat that with a straight face.
Meh Doesn’t matter what you are, what you said was disrespectful.
Thank you for posting this video. I will share on my Facebook to raise awareness.
Very useful & informative 🇺🇸❤️
I got out of the Navy April of 2024 and 7 months later I am experiencing all of these symptoms and it really tears me up. I am easily irritable, I can't focus, I am paranoid and always in flight mode. G;ad to see that I am not the only one
Trauma?
I still do not trust the VA. I’ve been out since 2004. When I did go, all they wanted to do is fill me full of Wellbutrin.
Wait, could someone explain what that is?
The VA are pill pushers! I've been there brother. But this thing is going to destroy me. I just don't even know anymore.
@Celtic Viking I want to tear up, because I dont want to be a statistic of 22 a day. I have MST and have been through intensive therapy while in and out. It's been 3 years out for me, and the future seems foggy. I'm trying my best daily to cope but with my mental health it's difficult. I try to seem strong, but inside I'm truely hurting.
@Celtic Viking I am glad you've made it this far in life.

It's not just soldiers who suffer from PTSD.
Maybe so but it is only soldiers who risk their live and give up their personal freedom for this country just to have every whining bitch with a hangnail claiming ptsd!!! Unless you’ve served we don’t want to hear about it!!!
@@blaine1124 That statement is provably untrue. A nurse watching people die of COVID is certainly serving their country and risking their life. The same goes for a teacher who survives a school shooting. How about a first responder during a natural disaster? Wildland firefighter? In fact, their contributions to society are more positive, ensuring health and enriching life instead of destroying it.
The larger point you fail to understand is that PTSD affects the brain in much the same way, whether you are a soldier, a rape survivor, an abused child, whatever. That's why it's a documented disorder and also not called "soldiers only PTSD". The idea of comparing trauma and assigning it greater value is absurd. Instead of invalidating people you don't know, maybe take a look at the beliefs about yourself that would lead to such an aggressive, unfeeling response.
@@charliemcpherson6299 people live in this country in relative safety. Yes I know bad things happen in life, to everyone!! But what you are not seeming to understand is that soldiers in combat zones are living in hell in constant state of fear. We get to experience death and destruction on a scale people who’ve never been in these conditions could imagine!! It pisses me of to hear about someone claiming ptsd because they heard a gunshot or had one incident happen to them!! People seem to want to use whatever bad thing that happened to them to play victim for the rest of their lives. I know rape and child molestation among other tings are traumatic but there is help and immediate recovery assets available to civilians here at home. And also another thing that most people don’t understand is that when your in the military, you can’t quit and walk away. You are there until your dead or your enlistment is up, and even then you can be stop loss and have your enlist extended involuntarily. Cops, doctors, nurses... can quit anytime if they don’t like the boss or working conditions. Soldiers can’t!
@@charliemcpherson6299 thank you for saying this.. my gma was a nurse for over 40 years and was diagnosed with PTSD.
@@blaine1124 people who live in poor cities experience similar things to that too.. they live with what’s known as survivor brain. They experience almost everything that you just mentioned. So, it’s not about whining over a nail or whatever you said.
😊God is love and he can move any mountains have faith in Him pray
How was god created then🤔
@@ryanthomas1438it is written John 1:1 in the beginning was the word and the word was God.believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you shall be saved..without faith its impossible to please God , the just shall live by faith and not by sight.
And the word was with God*
There’s no god sorry read a science book
Amen
You think you have problems till you are your worst enemy
If you are the person who has complex PTSD You may he offered therapies used to treat PTSD such as trauma-cognitve behavioral therapy (CBT) or eye movement desensitisation reprocessing (EDMR).
The 4 of July in the in Tx is so diff it was "funny" the first time It happen the whistling of the Firework I for a split second my body start to run for the Bunker!

i hope he elaborates in another video segment
I’ve never been in a war or battle or in a fight or neither any bad situation and I’m young yet I’m paranoid of things at night and I jump to gun shots even if I’m aware of them
Hello,
Thank you for writing. Whether you are a Veteran or not, it is common to have reactions such as upsetting memories, increased jumpiness, or trouble sleeping after a serious accident, disaster, assault, or other trauma. If these reactions do not go away or get worse, you may have posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

People with ptsd do y'all hear ringing noise
I thought it was Tinnitus, but that ringing does go loud.
jayjay86443 yes it is called tonight is you’re absolutely right a lot of people don’t know about it because it’s typically a symptom from definitions and people who have lost a significant amount of their hearing it’s similar to what we experience when we hear a very loud noise and have that ringing in her ears but for some it is constant and extremely loud, disorienting and hinders their ability to live a normal life I should know because my grandfather has tonight is due to his severe hearing loss that occurred literally overnight around three years ago he got it from an infection that basically inflamed the nerves blood vessels and everything surrounding his ear canal, eardrum and the ear in general LOL and was never the same literally it was scary he thought it would only last a couple days and he was just congested butThe hearing never came back and it was diagnosed later as hearing loss due to a basic common cold which is quite scary to think about and 85% of it is gone and he will never get it back
Yea
It's called tinnitus, and it is common among veterans, because, obviously, war is not a quiet affair.
Huh?

Do you relive battles?

Tazz Tazz i’m thinking about joining the marines but it worries me that i’ll end up with ptsd and want to commit suicide, anything you can recommend that can help me or should i just join a different branch
Austin Boreham I’m joining the royal marine commandos. PTSD is something that we hope we don’t get and it’s not a voluntary thing you know?
Kerem Aysan yeah i get it your right at least i’m serving my country so it’s worth it 100%
Meh don’t care still joining i just thought about it for about a week and i decided that if i get ptsd that’s fine i’m serving my country and that’s all that matters
Broke, disabled, medical costs,. over priced rent... no one cares. No one can help.

I lost my family to this shit
I write as I sail across life
- 1994... because people are normal, we are the ones who tear each other apart, 2020+ is the new dawn, learn to be human... a warning to all... done being the world's prophet.
Iv always had a passion for skydiving. I have my license and do it recreationally on the weekends with hundreds of jumps. I always said I would never BASE jump because there is no reserve parachute and there are soo many extra factors that can kill you. I had an event happen to me in 2021 which fucked me up mentally and caused me to not want to go shoot myself, but to start BASE jumping. It wasn't because of the desire to BASE jump, but because of the desire to challenge death and not caring the outcome. I just went to branch medical on base, and they referred me to the ER. The ER said branch medical will call me the next morning for a follow up and medication. Still no call. Nobody gives a shit. You just get passed around.
Hello, hope your doing ok. I educate American Military Veterans on their Veteran Affairs (VA) Benefits to
include:
1. VA Compensation & Pension Claims and filings. (VA C&P)
If you would like to know more PM me.

If you are a combat vet and really want to kick your PTSD symptoms in the ass, learn and practice Transcendental Meditation (TM). The practice is easy and effortless. In a 2021 study published in the Journal of Traumatic Stress, half of the vets "no longer met the criteria for having PTSD” after doing TM for 3 months, compared with just 10% of those receiving standard trauma-based therapy. As NIH senior research fellow, Dr. Pamela Peeke, notes, “The research on Transcendental Meditation is excellent.” Unlike the other therapies, TM is able to effortlessly and comfortably reduce the anxiety and depression seen in veterans suffering from PTSD. TM is easier to practice compared to most PTSD therapies offered by the VA and the military, and is more effective, making this technique preferable among PTSD vets and active duty troops. If you are a combat vet and really want to kick your PTSD symptoms in the ass, go to TM.org and find an instructor.
