When I came
back from Iraq, I had family

and friends were asking me,
am I crazy?

Am I...

Am I going through like,
different types of situations?

When I'm in, I'm quiet.

I'm not speaking.

And they just think that I'm
going to explode and go off.

So I couldn't even communicate
with my own family.

So I bottled up a lot of
emotions, lots of feelings.
