I did a BDD when I got out, I’m 25 and 100% P&T. I’ve been out for a little less than a year. And I feel like I’m mentally dying. I can’t really talk to my family or anybody close to me about this because I know nobody will really understand.

I currently go to school and have a part time job and pursue martial arts, but I feel so damn lazy, so unmotivated to do anything that a lot of day I just want to sit here and cry.

I was Supply, and most of my injuries came from Doing/teaching martial arts while in the military. So I don’t deal with any combat related PTSD, but my ANXIETY being out of the military is almost debilitating. I have no clue what to do. On the outside I probably seem fine, but it feel like I’m melting on the inside.

Hey guys,

I’m 100% P&T, I just got out and when I was in (2018-2025) I did MMA and all that outside of work and had sanctioned fights.

All my NCOs told me, “go to medical, get it documented if something hurt” so I always did, even if the injury was from me doing martial arts in my own time. The Education Center offered VSO services and I filed my BDD claim through them.

I still do MMA and was thinking about growing my social media following to try and grow the sport and open my own gym one day. Can the VA or any outside entities sue me or anything if I made a lot of money and someone said I was faking injury?

I was genuinely shocked when I got a rating after filing, I didn’t lie or anything on any of the exams when I was getting out, so I’m just asking for my myself legally.

Edit: In no way am I bragging, I’m just noticing how many bad influence are on social media and just kind of want to be like one of those guys who’s a good influence.

NOT AN AD! A GENUINE QUESTION!

Sup guys, I’m an ammy fighter with about 15 fights, trained in Thailand, training/fighting on the east coast and west coast of the USA. I’m now in the process of growing my social media in hopes of being able to do what I love for a living! I’m trying to get an idea of what YOU would want to see.

My target audience are young amateur fighters, people getting into Muay Thai, and people who are trying to learn about the fundamentals of healthy lifestyle choices.

THE BIG QUESTION!

What videos or content would make YOU stop and actually engage?
