Project Sapient (Police & Military Discussions)

I Came Back… But Not Really & PTSD Awareness month


Listen Later

The boys discuss Ayman's article (link here) on Havok Journal where he talks about coming back from war....but not really.   The changes, the pressures, the unmistakable differences in internal and external life. 

They get into the nitty gritty of the process - what it does to someone in the armed forces as well as in Policing.   Here is an excerpt:

"About a couple of weeks went by, and it was more of the same. Hardly any sleep. Sitting in the living room. Watching TV, trying to make the time pass. I took melatonin, and that didn’t work. I had some messed up dreams that forced me awake. One night (my sister told me this because I don’t remember), my sister found me sitting up in my bed and staring at the wall in front of me. My sister got my attention and we sat on the couch and watched movies.

Another couple of weeks go by. I could feel this rage inside me that I’ve been trying to keep contained. It had been so difficult. My room, the walls were full of holes from the amount of times I had punched them."

Have a listen.
