“He said, ‘You killed me.’”
As a police officer, Chad Robichaux had to make a life-or-death decision. As a Force Recon Marine, he witnessed unspeakable evil. Eight tours later those memories still haunted him.
“Somewhere in between when you get there to do something noble and you leave, you become that person yourself.”
His marriage and his family began falling apart. “I was out of control,” he says. ““I built a wall between me and my family to protect them from me.”
Then the PTSD set in. It got so bad he was removed from duty. He turned to MMA to cope, and became a champion fighter. But not even that could heal the pain from Afghanistan.
With his marriage “dead” and suicidal thoughts filling his head, Chad started searching for answers. His wife began searching, too. And when she finally revealed what she found, it started to change everything and led to a crucial decision in Chad’s life.
