Resilience Redefined: From Special Forces Limits to 12 Years Under Siege
For years, I’ve been told I wasn’t resilient enough. That toughness meant surviving anything, no matter how long it lasted. But here’s the truth: even Navy SEALs and Green Berets train within limits. Their stress is finite, monitored, and recoverable. Mine wasn’t.
I endured 12 years of stalking, harassment, and targeting—without consent, without oversight, without recovery. Under the Uniform Code of Military Justice, what I went through would have been criminal if imposed in a military setting. Yet in civilian life, it’s often dismissed.
This isn’t just about me. It’s about the ethical boundaries of resilience, the toll of longevity, and why toughness without limits is cruelty—not strength.

If resilience has limits in the military, it should have limits in civilian life too. Share this, challenge the narrative, and let’s redefine resilience together.
