[QUOTE="keista, post: 510127, member: 11965"] Saddest thing is that this wasn't just plain old PTSD - that's just what the military is blaming it on to avoid scrutiny. The men and women over there have been exposed to chemicals which is causing this. It's more common and more "intense" than PTSD should be. More often than not, these men an women function pretty normally during the day, but have episodes of sleepwalking/waking where they are reliving their military service, and really, really bad things, like above, happen. My stepson had this. During the day he was "fine" - his usual ornery, redneck self. At night, he'd wake his wife up choking and beating her, yelling about insurgents and such. Fortunately she'd wake up in time to wake him up. Once she did, he'd be in tears over what he did and would go sleep on the couch and make her lock him out of the bedroom. Yeah, military does not want to take responsibility for this. [/QUOTE]
