I think I might suffer from PTSD as well. When I was in the Army I was subjected to forms of torture synonymous to prisoner of war experiences : I had loaded weapons from sergeants drawn on me threatening to shoot, got thrown against a wall by a sergeant while suffering a mild concussion from impact, and was put a lot of times in hopeless situations where I honestly thought I'd either die or suffer great wrong. I remember one time a sergeant ordered me to stand near a pit, an exercise area, at attention until relieved of duty. Well that sergeant never came back. I was standing there for hours under the hot sun, thought I'd pass out from heat exposure, and finally someone outside my company relieved me. I saw things in there I still remember vividly today, like a fellow recruit's suicide attempt in a bathroom stall. There was a pool of blood spilling out from a stall, sergeant throws door open, and laughs at the attempt, urging him to end his life. It was like being in a madhouse around buff gangsters(drills) and roughed about like we were expendable tripe. The experience only worsened with similar altercations I had with authority figures at a deadend 8-5 job and its domineering ownership. The ownership during first few years I worked there didn't know how to respect employees. I was getting paid so little but treated like everything rested on my shoulders, like I was some Assistant Manager making 100k+ at work with its duties, but they only paid bottom of the barrel for very strenuous tasks. I managed to survive nearly twenty years of the abuse until I got let go, but it really damaged my impression of authority figures, because they shattered my trust through abuse of power.
I am loving your channel and I thank you for what you do. I too am struggling with PTSD due to being shot at and trusting someone that I shouldn't have, almost losing my life as well. I too have come to realize that my issue is the shattered illusion of a false sense of security. Your wisdom is beyond so many others in this world. We need more people like you. Thank you for sharing this.
@@FriarTuck81 You will. Just takes time. Try to find a way to get the UA-cam algorithms to suggest your videos to a wider range of viewers. In other words, maybe right now most of the viewers have previously viewed videos related to homelessness, which is why your channel was suggested to them. But that's a tiny % of the population who would seek out those videos. So you have to make the algorithms see your content as more "general" and less "specific" and thus suggest the content to a larger audience with more general interests
Tuck I think you're are doing very well. You have a sense of humor, you're grounded in reality, you have compassion and empathy. The journey you have been on through your life would break a lot of people. But not you. You are being transformed, made stronger, more tenacious, more determined, more resilient and I commend you my friend. At times I have sat down and cried my eyes out and felt a lot better after. Not for self sympathy but to just cleanse my spirit. Thanks for everything you do Tuck, best wishes man.
The last 3 years, gave a lot of people PTSD. Lost Sense of security. They can lock you in your house, muzzle you, make you show zee papers. Restrict your freedom, your speech, And called you the enemy.
I’ve experienced this myself
THANKS
Anytime

Dude, if Boot Camp gave you PTSD you probably should’ve never joined the military to begin with.

Read Billy Meier and you can be where I’m at.
Hey man, just checking in and making sure you're doing alright with the hurricane coming in and hitting like a freight train. Proof of life comment.
Yeah went to shelter for the night.
Really one of the most interesting channels I've run across in 10+ years on UA-cam. Intelligent and relatable discussion every time.
I hear that a lot, I’m just surprised I don’t get more views and traction considering.
