I didn't know I had PTSD.
Back in those days, nobody
really knew what PTSD was.
Actually, I didn't think
there was anything
wrong with me.
I thought everybody else
was screwed up and
I was fine.
But as time went on I
learned that
my behavior, things
that I was doing
in my life were
causing problems.
And not just for me, but
people around me.
People that I worked for,
people I went to
school with,
people in my family,
old friends
that were not
friends anymore.
The whole
combination of things.
Self-destructive
behaviors mostly.
Alcohol.
Experimental street drugs.
Self-medicating.
Participating in
increasingly
more dangerous activities,
shall we say.
I guess you could
almost say
that I had my own death
wish going on.
