Before I left for my second deployment I was training
and working out to go to Dive Med School.
I know that a psychological evaluation was part
of the process and I knew if I came back
from my second deployment and had psychological issues
that I might not have that chance to go Dive School.
I might not be able to pick up rank.
I was on track, I was doing everything right
that I was supposed to, but definitely getting diagnosed
with PTSD would not have allowed me to be a Dive Med Tech
and I was worried about it and I knew I had to make a decision
between getting help and going to Dive School.
And I figured if I didn't get help for the PTSD I wasn't going
to Dive School anyways because I'd probably be dead
from committing suicide.
