Justin was severely wounded in Iraq and sent home, even though he wanted to rejoin his unit. During his long recovery, Justin had issues with anger and trouble in crowds. He didn't understand what was happening to him, so he visited VA counselors. They helped him learn to cope with survivor's guilt, PTSD, and physical injury in a healthy manner.

Oh, I'm not a veteran. Not going into the reason, but I just happened to come across the video and thought he was amazing.

You are a hero in so many ways. Thank you for telling your story, and for emphasizing that asking for help is a sign of strength. I once heard a psychiatrist say, "it's the strong people who come see me."
