VET Tv 17+

I’ve been using this app and watching that videos almost since it first started. I’ve got to say, seeing variations of crazy crap that actually takes place as opposed to what you see in commercials and movies. Just when I thought was only the Army that screwed up, this brought to light all the branches are screwed up! Lol.
On another note, after being medically retired out of the Army I felt like I lost my identity of who I had become and all that I had worked for. It seemed as if everything had come to an abrupt halt, from the deployments, the crazy crap that took place seemingly all the time, to the camaraderie that I experienced which was like nothing I had or will ever probably experience again. These feelings brought on severe depression to the point that I was in a bad place mentally and emotionally. Without going into great detail I can honestly say the videos and everything else within this app literally helped save my life. To read how many other military members, both current past and present felt the same way or had similar thoughts was eye-opening and showed me that I was not the only person Going through my situation. This app and videos within help you relate and also are informative at times giving you information if you’re having bad thoughts or need help. It’s Truly a blessing what these people have done and continue to do for our brothers and sisters in arms. Keep it up and bring on the laughs!

Been batteling my demons for the last 17-18yrs and it’s been a struggle. But I’m still holding on and VetTV, especially the “let’s talk about the war series.” Kind of opened up my eyes. That I’m not the only one self destructing and hating everyone everything. My shrink years ago wouldn’t let me stay in group because I was too aggressive and confrontational, I was the only infantry guy.
The comedy shows, just brings back the funny memories, horseplay and shamtastic shenanigans.
Since 2019 I started closing off and turning inward, I talk to no one, I avoid leaving and going anywhere especially traveling long distance. I no longer talk to my family other than my mom, and my family is falling apart here at home, I have no friends nearby and most avoid me because I’m always cold and closed off. I’ve pushed the majority of people away from me and I’m on my last straw. I hope watching these shows sparks more want for healing, because I’m so tired of fighting, and the worst part, there are others worse off. but that hyper anxiety and sucking chest feeling the memories and pain is so overwhelming. Ugh. I’ll be a lifelong subscriber until Vet TV sells out, or I pass on to a better place.

I’m a 23yo civilian currently in school for a psychiatric undergrad degree that I want continue into a masters or maybe even doctorates of psychology for the sake of becoming a therapist for veterans and police officers with PTSD. I have several friends in various branches of the armed forces and have lost a couple to mental health issues directly related to their time in the service. I know from experiencing my own trauma that it’s hard to accept help from someone who’s never been exposed to the kinds of hardships that you as a victim are faced with, or people who take their book knowledge too seriously. I plan on joining up as soon as I get my degree and finishing my education while enlisted.
Now, having gratuitously sucked my own dick, I’ve got to say- this is exactly what I was expecting and 10x better than I had hoped. Some of the jokes go over my head, and I don’t have a lot of time to invest in watching it, but I’m paying for the subscription if only because if supports the cause. I wish I had had this to share with my friend when he was in a rough patch after coming home. It’s probably saving lives. Y’all are awesome for what you’re doing, and I will continue to support. Keep up the good work!
