Not much you can do.

Even Sigmund Freud (figuratively speaking) would be unable to provide psychotherapy on the Internet.

I have been told by a friend who is active in veterans groups that almost all “Normal” people (i.e., non-sociopaths) are injured psychologically if they see combat, especially those who returned for second or third tours.

There has been some progress on PTSD by clinical psychologists employing hypnosis.

Schizophrenia is still pretty much incurable.

Getting the krap scared out of ones self repeatedly has to have lasting effects. Can’t be any serious argument about that. It has bit my butt for a couple decades that our military allows guys to re-up for 2nd and 3rd tours right back into combat zones with no breaks between. Going back to WW II times, units fought battles, sometimes for weeks or months, but then the whole unit took some down time in a rear area to clean up, re-group, re- man, sometimes re-train. But even the V-5 guys knew there would be an end. This bizness of working guys in high tension zones until they break, quit, zone out is a wrong way to do the job. Veetnam got some of it started but Bush43 really abused the trooper pool.

I've decided to simply cut him from the "fleet" removing him from talking with us anymore.

That is big pharma programming. It's false information.
High dose Nicene for three days Dr Hoffer: Vit B3
Adrenochrome hypothesis is the concept that anxiety is chemically induced by Adrenaline. When you get excited about anything you may not even realize you release a little Adrenaline. Adrenochrome is simply oxygenated Adrenaline. Dr Hoffer found Vitamin B3 niacin in the proper dosage will control the Adrenaline becoming Adrenochrome

Melinda in TN I know I asked you about this a few months ago. Though I'm now planning our trip to Tennessee. My wife and i are looking for a new place to live.
I've never been to Tennessee. I'm looking at Dale hollow lake too Big south fork National river area. I see a couple towns called Jamestown and Livingston area for reference.
What do you think of that area and do you have any suggestions?
Thank you
