She stated that the Marine had seen extensive combat throughout his life and shared some disturbing stories.The Marine told her of his combat experiences and how they adversely affected his life.Here's a section of the Marine's story:“The last battle we got into, it was 60 of us, and we went in and only five made it out alive. And the person who saved me when I got wounded actually ended up dying and when I came back to get my medal, I went to thank his wife. She looked me in the eyes and said, ‘it should have been you.'"The Marine added that when he returned home, his wife could not handle the burden of her husband showcasing symptoms of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). His wife eventually left him.Sobering data on healthcare worker mental health:-15-17% emergency clinicians meet criteria for PTSD. -˜400 physicians die by suicide every year. -Yet only 45% feel comfortable seeking help.
