Do you still counsel? I thought the 25% of PTSD sufferers was due to fetal growth and mother stress but interestingly I read that Britain’s soldiers suffer at only 5%. Could be their mum’s temperaments or definitions but I am going to do a world wide by nationality search.

The thought of your presentation is making my monitor go blurry because only now are they taking precautionary training measures. We have lost so many precious people to suicide that this late response is so horrendous. Also, since Extortion 17, the suicide rate among our Special Ops members has proven that (yes, Hillary) for them, including Benghazi, it made a big difference. I believe it is the straw.

If you still counsel, could you private message me and I will keep you on file?

“We have lost so many precious people to suicide”

The historic suicide rate in the military was much lower than the same age group in the general population. It was not until Obama changed the rules of engagement in 2008 that our soldiers felt helpless to protect themselves, their men and to accomplish their mission. I had men crying to me in frustration as the soldiers under them were committing suicide from the feeling of absolute helplessness when they were being court martialed for returning fire after being shot at by insurgents.

This change, along with the lack of direction and defined mission from the commander in chief destroyed morale and increased the suicide rate beyond the casualty rate.
