Dialogue: 0,0:00:43.36,0:00:48.57,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Until recently, the science of PTSD\Njust wasn't there.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:49.16,0:00:51.54,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And so, we didn't know what to do.

Dialogue: 0,0:01:25.05,0:01:28.03,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Because new scientific research\Nhas been able to show,

Dialogue: 0,0:01:33.96,0:01:35.60,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now as it turns out,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:35.63,0:01:40.86,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the best treatments for PTSD use\Nmany of the very same training principles

Dialogue: 0,0:01:46.23,0:01:47.71,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now, making war --
Dialogue: 0,0:01:48.25,0:01:50.56,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,this is something that we are good at.

Dialogue: 0,0:01:56.01,0:01:59.47,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And since then, we have gone\Nfrom using stone and sinew

Dialogue: 0,0:02:04.11,0:02:06.44,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And to enable our warriors\Nto use these weapons,

Dialogue: 0,0:02:10.90,0:02:13.88,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And we are good at training\Nour warriors to fight.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:14.69,0:02:18.18,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Yet, when we consider the experience\Nof the modern-day combat veteran,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:18.20,0:02:21.39,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,we begin to see that we\Nhave not been as good

Dialogue: 0,0:02:23.45,0:02:24.65,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Why is that?
Dialogue: 0,0:02:25.73,0:02:29.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Well, our ancestors lived\Nimmersed in conflict,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:29.03,0:02:31.41,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and they fought right where they lived.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:32.09,0:02:35.11,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So until only very recently\Nin our evolutionary history,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:35.13,0:02:38.02,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,there was hardly a need to learn\Nhow to come home from war,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:38.05,0:02:40.17,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,because we never really did.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:41.38,0:02:42.62,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But thankfully, today,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:42.64,0:02:45.66,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,most of humanity lives\Nin far more peaceful societies,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:45.68,0:02:49.66,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and when there is conflict,\Nwe, especially in the United States,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:49.68,0:02:53.18,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,now have the technology to put\Nour warriors through advanced training,

Dialogue: 0,0:02:56.05,0:02:57.51,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and when they're done,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:57.53,0:02:59.56,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,jet them back to peacetime suburbia.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:00.51,0:03:04.37,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But just imagine for a moment\Nwhat this must feel like.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:05.06,0:03:07.08,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I've spoken with veterans who've told me
Dialogue: 0,0:03:07.11,0:03:10.20,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that one day they're in a brutal\Nfirefight in Afghanistan
Dialogue: 0,0:03:10.22,0:03:13.10,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,where they saw carnage and death,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:13.87,0:03:16.34,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and just three days later,\Nthey found themselves
Dialogue: 0,0:03:16.36,0:03:18.94,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,toting an ice chest\Nto their kid's soccer game.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:20.40,0:03:23.17,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,"Mindfuck" is the most common term.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:23.19,0:03:24.61,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,(Laughter)
Dialogue: 0,0:03:24.63,0:03:27.75,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It's the most common term\NI've heard to describe that experience.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:27.78,0:03:29.30,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And that's exactly what that is.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:29.32,0:03:33.31,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Because while our warriors\Nspend countless hours training for war,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:33.34,0:03:35.23,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,we've only recently come to understand
Dialogue: 0,0:03:35.25,0:03:38.71,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that many require training\Non how to return to civilian life.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:39.64,0:03:43.73,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now, like any training, the best\NPTSD treatments require repetition.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:43.76,0:03:44.91,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,In the military,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:44.93,0:03:48.17,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,we don't simply hand trainees\NMark-19 automatic grenade launchers
Dialogue: 0,0:03:48.20,0:03:51.39,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and say, "Here's the trigger,\Nhere's some ammo and good luck."
Dialogue: 0,0:03:51.41,0:03:56.11,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,No. We train them, on the range\Nand in specific contexts,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:56.13,0:03:57.82,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,over and over and over
Dialogue: 0,0:03:57.84,0:04:00.63,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,until lifting their weapon\Nand engaging their target
Dialogue: 0,0:04:00.66,0:04:02.49,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,is so engrained into muscle memory
Dialogue: 0,0:04:02.52,0:04:04.84,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that it can be performed\Nwithout even thinking,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:04.87,0:04:07.79,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,even under the most stressful\Nconditions you can imagine.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:08.63,0:04:11.36,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now, the same holds\Nfor training-based treatments.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:11.88,0:04:15.21,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The first of these treatments\Nis cognitive therapy,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:15.23,0:04:18.60,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and this is a kind\Nof mental recalibration.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:19.17,0:04:20.80,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,When veterans come home from war,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:20.82,0:04:23.42,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,their way of mentally framing\Nthe world is calibrated
Dialogue: 0,0:04:23.44,0:04:26.10,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,to an immensely\Nmore dangerous environment.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:26.86,0:04:32.02,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So when you try to overlay that mind frame\Nonto a peacetime environment,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:32.04,0:04:33.24,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,you get problems.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:33.27,0:04:37.72,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,You begin drowning in worries\Nabout dangers that aren't present.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:37.75,0:04:41.07,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,You begin not trusting family or friends.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:41.94,0:04:45.100,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Which is not to say there are no\Ndangers in civilian life; there are.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:46.40,0:04:49.09,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It's just that the probability\Nof encountering them
Dialogue: 0,0:04:49.12,0:04:50.39,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,compared to combat
Dialogue: 0,0:04:50.41,0:04:52.72,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,is astronomically lower.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:53.68,0:04:56.82,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So we never advise veterans\Nto turn off caution completely.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:56.84,0:04:59.22,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,We do train them, however,\Nto adjust caution
Dialogue: 0,0:04:59.25,0:05:00.89,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,according to where they are.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:01.68,0:05:04.17,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,If you find yourself\Nin a bad neighborhood,
Dialogue: 0,0:05:04.19,0:05:05.45,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,you turn it up.

Dialogue: 0,0:05:07.55,0:05:09.48,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,You turn it way down.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:09.98,0:05:12.75,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,We train veterans to be fiercely rational,
Dialogue: 0,0:05:13.27,0:05:16.82,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,to systematically gauge\Nthe actual statistical probability
Dialogue: 0,0:05:16.85,0:05:20.66,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,of encountering, say, an IED\Nhere in peacetime America.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:21.46,0:05:25.72,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,With enough practice,\Nthose recalibrations stick.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:27.19,0:05:29.51,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The next of these treatments\Nis exposure therapy,
Dialogue: 0,0:05:29.53,0:05:31.96,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and this is a kind of field training,
Dialogue: 0,0:05:32.45,0:05:35.51,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and the fastest of the proven\Neffective treatments out there.

Dialogue: 0,0:05:37.56,0:05:39.42,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,This was the treatment that he chose.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:39.87,0:05:42.31,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And so we started off\Nby giving him exercises,
Dialogue: 0,0:05:42.33,0:05:43.64,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,for him, challenging ones:
Dialogue: 0,0:05:43.66,0:05:45.61,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,going to a grocery store,

Dialogue: 0,0:05:55.79,0:05:57.50,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now, at first he was very anxious.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:57.52,0:06:00.02,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,He wanted to sit\Nwhere he could scan the room,

Dialogue: 0,0:06:20.87,0:06:25.78,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,he had effectively relearned\Nhow to sit in a public space

Dialogue: 0,0:07:25.98,0:07:27.26,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But it's often difficult.
Dialogue: 0,0:07:27.68,0:07:31.32,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And, like any training,\Nit may not work for everybody.
Dialogue: 0,0:07:32.12,0:07:33.41,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And there are trust issues.
