Complex Combat PTSD

Matt Morris served in the military for 6 years in the front line armoured infantry battalion, using dynamic entry into enemy occupied buildings to capture or eliminate the enemy. After leaving the army, he hoped he could return back to normal life. However, because Matt had previously seen very distressing things daily, those repetitive traumatic events had caused Matt to be diagnosed with CPTSD. He also had several friends who lost their lives. He felt overwhelming guilt, because they had died and he hadn’t. Matt had completely changed from the person his wife had met years ago. She was desperate to get him help because his life had spiralled into a black hole and he had said to her, “I don’t feel like being here anymore.”
