      And this is why many people are deciding not to ever go near serving the government because that's really what the military does whether you want to admit it or not. They use people who buy into the very nice sounding idea of "you're going to fight to keep people safe" when in reality the military carries out the agendas of The Powers That Be. They use them and dispose of them and after, they're told to go live civilian life as if nothing happened. It is ridiculous. I'm sorry people fell for one of the biggest lies ever sold to the public. Now we have countless of homeless veterans or ones who are struggling every day with just being alive and the government does little to nothing about it.

    I lived in Dallas for several years, The VA out there is overwhelmed and understaffed. Every year they have a team go out and count all of the Homeless veterans in the DFW area. About 6 years ago, my mother was a part of that team. She was gone for 4 days and their final count concluded more than 700,000 .... Homeless Veterans... with everything from PTSD to Alcoholism and drug abuse, Even ones that became homeless due to service-connected disabilities that prevented them from working in the civilian world. My mom was a drill sergeant for 8 years, she was in Desert Storm and also had PTSD. She did a total of 27 years in the service. I'd never seen her the same way after that census, she had become a different, more somber woman after that experience. I wish there was more that Texas and the nation as a whole could do to provide better access and better quality of care and recovery services for these brave and broken people who made the ultimate sacrifice with their lives. They deserve far more than just discounts, t-shirts, and free hot meals on Veterans and Memorial days. What they get and have access to now, it's truly just not enough.

      I've experienced PTSD due to a past toxic relationship. I understand everyone's point of view and that PTSD occurs in many different situations. But what I think this episode was trying to highlight ​was the difficulties that veterans face when returning to society. Loud noises can trigger memories and emotions of the past.
      For the veterans they were in an immediate 'life or death', situation. They didn't know if they were returning home to their families alive or in a body bag. More needs to be done to help them adjust to society. More needs to be done in regards to mental health for everyone.

    I have a TBI & PTSD from my time in the Army. I served my 20, and it’s been very hard trying to adjust back to civilian life. I have good days and bad days, and I just always have to be mindful of the things that trigger me. I have tried the traditional route through the VA, with little success. Nowadays I try things a little out of the box, using methods that have worked for some of my brothers & sisters who’ve also served. I’ve been fortunate enough to meet many great people along the way on my journey to healing, and I’m looking forward to a day when I can maybe feel “normal” again.

    I got into a long chat with an army veteran. He was in that unit that got Saddam Hussein! He told me stories of his friends losing limbs and dying. I can see the sadness and emptiness in his eyes. He was saying things, like the woman said, siht other people didn't see. He was thankful I talked to him. The other men there were ignoring him, looking for a quick fuck. He appreciated someone taking the time to see the human inside and not dollar signs.
    My uncle signed up for the army when he was in the US. He was supposed to go to Afghanistan. My grandma literally put her body between the army and my uncle. I could imaging what if he did go through with it.

    My uncle served in the army long before I was born. He suffers from PTSD too. I do too. Granted, mine comes from being constantly bullied in school when I was little, but still. PTSD is very real, and can be dangerous if left untreated. Whenever I see my uncle, I always hug him, and I think that helps him a lot. Hugs are one of the simplest yet most powerful forms of comfort and affection. That’s what I love about hugs, ever since I was little.

    I had a professor who served in Vietnam, son served in Afghanistan. Son came home with PTSD, the VA hospital admitted him. However professor felt that the VA wasn’t working for his son. The priest (I think I got the title right) at their church offered to have several counseling sessions a week with the son. 6 months later son was pretty close to is old self again. Son even said this is really all he wanted (needed).

      i think what it actually is is the newer scenarios are more about private conversations that are uncomfortable and inappropriate in a public setting. i wouldn’t reach out in this scenario, not because i don’t care, but because i have no business meddling with a stranger’s mental health and marriage. i think we’d be seeing a different response if they were doing more scenarios about abuse or injustices. i mean, even the second to last woman that approached the actress first did so because she thought the actress was in danger.
