He was a tunnel rat. Some of the stories that I have heard from him are absolutely horrible, and scary. He has been in treatment for about 6 or 7 years. But, I am sorry to say, nothing really seems to be helping him. He is on medication, but, even that is not as effective anymore. It has come to the point that I and my mother feel like we are walking on egg shells when we are around him. Don’t get me wrong, he is a great guy; when he is normal. His delusions are bad, and most of all, his anger is outrageous ! I do understand whole heartedly that he was in a terrible war, and has seen horrible things, but, Is it fair to others to take it out (so to speak) on us ?? I’m wondering what to do. Comments
