How Veterans Unknowingly Reinforce PTSD

Описание: Here’s a hard truth most veterans have never been told:

You can be unknowingly rewarding the very behaviors that keep your PTSD alive.

Not because you’re weak.
Not because you want to stay stuck.
But because your nervous system is doing exactly what it was trained to do — keep you safe.

This is Video 3 in my Reward Circuitry Warfare series — and it covers a hard truth most veterans have never been shown.

I lived this.

For years, I isolated in my room.
I patrolled my house constantly.
I stayed hyper-vigilant, guarded, angry, and on edge.

At the time, I believed I was protecting myself.
It felt like safety.
It felt like control.

But what I didn’t understand back then was this:

Every time I chose those behaviors, my body reinforced them.

I survived another moment — so dopamine was released.
The behavior was promoted.
The pattern got stronger.
And the more I repeated it, the more automatic it became.

What I thought was keeping me safe was actually driving PTSD deeper and deeper into my body, wiring it into my nervous system and making it harder and harder to break.

I wasn’t broken.
I was unknowingly training myself to stay stuck.

That’s what this video is about.
Not fixing it yet.
Not solutions yet.
Just seeing the system clearly.

Because until you understand how you’re accidentally rewarding the patterns that trap you, nothing changes.

Awareness is the first breach in the wall.

If this makes you uncomfortable — good.
That discomfort is clarity starting to break through.

The next step is coming.
