October 24, 2023 After Duty Hours Ep.15 | Sharing His Story on Depression and Suicide Ft. Daniel Colacino
We as Airman, Marines, Soldiers, and Sailors, know that the Mental Institution in the military is not the best, it is making strides to get better but us as wingmen and battle buddies we
must step up. As for many people dealing with their issues just need a fellow brother or sister to talk to. During my time in Denver, I learned MH has no regard for race, gender, religion, or rank. I call it my No rank, No Bullshit initiative, when it comes to MH it knows no boundaries it doesn’t treat us as a rank status. If we see a fellow member down regardless of our position or
what office we work in we need to reach out, the best way to prevent a possible suicide is to act earlier, when it comes to this our military seems to be focused on reacting instead of acting. As they have many outlines to do after an attempt or ideation but very little on what to do before it gets that far. It also takes all of us to understand in the end we are human beings and human decency shouldn’t be so much to ask for. At the end of the day, this uniform comes off forever, but we remain human our entire lifetime. ( Some quick MH facts for you, did you know that from 2016 through 2020, a total of 456,293 active component service members were diagnosed with at least 1 mental health disorder. And that Depression affects 23% of active-duty military. Also that in the US alone 1 to 5 adults in America live with a mental illness of some sort.) So my fellow colleagues we stand and are in a critical time of our military service we alone can be a change of generation for our mental health, as together we produce the loudest voice for change, the 22 a day needs to be a thing of the past, Now one person alone does not have the keys to stop this daunting disease, it’s a unifying effort, a mission that we can take a steps in accomplishing so that the numbers will lower. It pains me when I travel around this world to see homeless vets, left alone, with no access to mental health because of the
ideologies of the old and insufficient knowledge of the past. These were men and women who fought on the island of the Pacific, or the conquest to save Europe, the jungles of Vietnam or the ever-changing environment in Afghanistan and Iraq. It creates a fire deep in my chest to work harder to help prevent situations like this in the future. These brothers and sisters who fought so
valiantly to give us the opportunity to live and grow in a land full of opportunity. Let us repay them in the now to prevent the pain and begin a new day of change as JFK said “If not us, who?
If not now, when? and that every accomplishment starts with a decision to try.”
Sincerely,
Daniel J. Colacino
