These kind of films are needed these days more than ever. There are so many Afghanistan and Iraq war vets with serious PTSD. Just look at what happened with that tragic veteran center shooting in California.
I agree. More attention needs to be drawn to PTSD, not just for Veterans, but for anyone suffering. They need to know that there is help out there and that it will get better for them.
FUCK THAT SHIT WAR IS HOT FUCK US ALL IN THE AS U PUSSY EASS BITCHES
Amazing Brother! really makes you realize a lot even about myself and my PTSD. I was in tears the second I saw the raw emotion Lynn expressed while talking, that its along road ahead. Stay the course brother.
People like you are the reason this film was made. If you ever need someone to talk to, you know where I am. I am always here for you brother.
Hi @Derangedvisions, this is truly an amazing post. The documentary might be long, but def. worth watching! I hope that with creating the film and taking the photographs this helped you out. Spending that much time on a project is a pain, but the results are rewarding, double rewarding for you. Great work!
Thank you. I really hope that this film is able to reach a large audience so that those that are in need of its message can receive it.
Amazing documentary. It is through these stories that I am able to learn what my father and some older friends experienced. It is an unspeakable event for many of them, the ones I am closest to are zip lipped.
Our son is also in the Army now so this allows us to pick up on more things we may have previously over looked. Thank you for the share.
Thank you for taking the time to watch the film and learn about Lynn's story. I am a veteran of 10 years and spent a few year in combat myself and when I made this film with Lynn, we wanted to tell the story of those that are "zip lipped" because we know that it is very hard for them to reach out and ask for help, but we also know that they are desperately wishing that they had the strength to ask for help. We wanted those that know and love those that are suffering from PTSD to be able to understand what they are going through and be able to support them in the best way possible. I wish you the best @erodedthoughts and I appreciate your support.
I am behind you, @derangedvisions. Always know that I am in your team. Keep making, keep doing, you have it in you to succeed in these crafts you do. All the best!
Thank you @mermaidvampire.

Thank you again for everything @carlgnash
Please upload it to Dtube also, I wish projects like this get more views. You get my follow and a Resteem to 1200+ followers!
I really appreciate it. I am going to be working on uploading it to Dtube in the future. That was my original plan, but after a 4 hour upload I got an error message and it stalled and I was getting close to my release deadline that I had set for my original audience. I had no clue that it would be so well received. I am glad that you enjoyed it.
It's certainly topical. In the new era of the professional all-volunteer American military, soldiers killed and physically wounded have gone way down - but cases of war-related PTSD have gone way up.
If you count PTSD as a regular war wound, the wound count is up there with the counts in the conscript days.
Something's really wrong here.
War and PTSD have always gone hand in hand. I think we are seeing a large increase in cases of war-related PTSD numbers now because we are finally realizing how to diagnose it.
That could be...or it could be caused by the military being misused, in a "use a hammer as a screwdriver" way. I've read a lot of complaints about too-restrictive ROEs.
The restrictive ROE could also be one reason why wars drag out for so long. But I think that is a discussion for another day.
