    My friend just got back from the Army . He was medical discharged because he talk and walks in his sleep and turned out to be prone to seizures after heat exhaustion . He is so sad he did not make it and stayed the entire time and volunteered to work making food and packing everyone's gear every morning despite missing his family everyday and could of left earlier . I don't know how to cheer him up but I try . Any advice from Vets that know more about this thing ?

    Get him into a psychologist. Look for ex-service support groups. If your Govt. provides assistance, get him into it.

    Armed forces break people, it's routine. Your friend needs to understand that it isn't about him personally.
    Some people cope with it, but many more are just regular human beings that see and feel things normally.

    Do it now. Be part of the successful statistics.
    I got suspenders for saying "Testicular Mass" instead of "Balls". like, rilly.

    for some the call to serve is very strong...i was very blessed to be in during a time when there were not any major conflicts...it's hard for me to even imagine the scope of the impact being in an hostile combat environment has on folks...

    be a good friend...which i'm sure you already are...obviously god has others plans for your friend, and, has given him the opportunity to spend his time else wise...

    If there were five of me, I might be able to beat up a five year old that has cerebral palsy and muscular dystrophy. It'd be a hard fight, and the chance that all six of us become too exhausted to continue is very likely.

    I was contemplating on doing HEMA rather than Krav Maga. Expensive to start though with all the protective gear, and the sparring sword.

    Studied Ryukyu Kenpo for 7 years.

    Served 20 years in the USMC, 8 of that in Force Recon.

    Celer. Silens. Mortalis.

    After a bit of contemplation on my post, I feel I need to add to it.

    After spending over half of my life training in combat and facing combat, I recognize how... futile it all was. With my body breaking down a bit further every year, I am more and more embracing a life of pacifism and peace.

    I find Tai Chi and Zen meditation far more fulfilling now. I find that a life of non-violence far more fulfilling than what my past contains.

    Every week when I go to train I get some mark on my body lol. We try to have some rules, as the only protections are the gauntlets. So no stabbing, for example, the blades might be plastic, but it hurts -a lot- if they stab you. The other day I got really badly hit on my head I was so damn dizzy lol

    I did 4 years of Hwa Rang Do and nearly got my black belt, but had to move to Germany because of military life. :(. Though I am really just a petite cuddle bunny, which could probably kill someone if I had to xD.

    How exactly does taking martial arts classes make you a "warrior"?

    And yes, i have several years of martial arts under my belt myself, but i would hardly consider myself a warrior.

    I actually very much prefer not having to use those skills in real life ...

    Ive had to use them once in the last year because two bigots attacked me and I put them in the hospital, but other than that I agree, I dont like using it either. I think a warrior is anyone that has a moderate depth of knowledge of some sort of Fighting style.

    I have multiple chronic illnesses, chronic fatigue, severe anxiety and depression. Every day I get up, shower, dress myself, manage our finances, bills, shopping, and play ESO to relax. (also when I'm too sick to get up so I don't go stir crazy.)

    I'm a warrior to myself, because I keep going when life has been basically trying to kill me for over 25 years.
