It is SO good to hear men talking about emotions and mental health difficulties in an open, honest way. This is real strength, real masculinity. So much more attractive than macho bullshit.

Two top blokes, but I’ve got to say Foxy has such a perfect grasp on mental health, PTSD specifically. He’s talking from experience and he’s talking sense.

Left four years ago, still struggling to adapt to the daily grind of normal life. Chronically ill now which adds even more excitement to the proceedings but in a way it's nice to be reminded that what I'm going through isn't unique and can be overcome.

inspirational listening to these two, i left the military after serving in afghanistan 2013 and still find it hard in civi street, so lonely and the struggle is real.

Don’t be lonely mate, there’s always someone to talk to . I’m ex mil (well RAF if that counts 😂), just reach out. I’m sure the guys you know or knew would love to hear from you. If not give me a shout although I’m a boring aeroplane geek 😜

I'm a psychologist, and the way foxy talks about mental health in such a simple no nonsense way is so great to hear and emulate - 'its all in the same thing'is such a great way to cut through things

Love the beard of that Royal Marine. True warrior style beard.

Upmost respect for both foxy and aldo.

If anyone liked this check out Jason fox’s podcast it’s really good.

Chris J Foxy was not SAS. He was in the SBS.

Not talking about or avoiding talking about my emotions during CBT was a real issue for me. Being made to talk about each traumatic incident in minute detail and discussing my thoughts and feelings was so important

It's great that you guys can talk openly about "human" issues. I've been through the process of becoming a military asset and being "decivilianised". But when it's all finished and you get to the time of life where you don't need to do it any more, the adjustment is something you play by ear, which doesn't always work. When I left the military, I finished a decorated soldier with an honourable service record. But I felt the metaphorical boot up the backside as I walked out of the barracks for the last time; ID card handed in, no travel warrant issued. Having had to return at short notice from Europe, I didn't have a lot of English money on me. I really did feel that i had been left a bit "high and dry". I suffered some adjustment problems which nobody ever knew about and they still don't, and the help available was pretty minimal. It has improved a lot since I served. Thank goodness.

Great stuff! Thank you guys.

More of this please.

Inspiring to listen to these two talk about these topics, much appreciated

Very interesting chat, and very helpful on mental health issues. Thanks gentlemen!

Army? These men are Royal Marines... part of the naval service.

As an ex BAOR soldier of the 1980's, i can seriously relate to all that conversation. Just because we were in Germany does not mean we never were involved in Op Banner. Most BAOR were, thats a lot of people. I was lucky, but learnt a lot mentally after that. These 2 guys take this to a point that anyone needing help/are silent, will push them to finding their problem and hopefully sorting it out. I hope all of those people that are ex Military that doubt themselves will seek the available help, please.

I can definitely relate to your view on PTSD, having served in both the military and Prison Service for a total period of 32 years, having been involved in some nasty shit and losing too many comrades during on the way. Respect to you guys. 🙏🏻💂‍♂️🇬🇧

Where can I find it?

This is more than a conversation between mates; these two - with their genuine hardcore service and experiences - seem to be talking to people who might be struggling. Feelings and reactions are part of human nature. There is help, and that help has improved a lot since the 1990's. But the onus is on ourselves to take charge of our life and health. Veterans will hear these messages as much as others who've 'been there', but anyone else in the same boat can understand these guys' messages. It's okay to have PTSD, or feel low, or to experience low self-esteem. It's okay to struggle sometimes. No-one is immune; it's okay to talk and there's no shame, because the weak people are the people who take the piss.

"Very hard graft I would say", there was so much weight behind what he didn't say with this statement.

This two part video has really helped me listening to these two warriors. I made it past half way of royal marine training then got medically discharged. I was in the doldrums for 12 years after training doing all sorts of stupid shit trying to prove myself to the world. I also met a girl who I thought I would spend my life with but she turned out to be a sociopath who enjoyed the fact I was fragile after loosing my dream job. She made my life hell. One day I woke up and realised what was going on and got rid of her. It still took a couple more years after her to really get my life back on check. The crazy thing is I still think of her everyday.

Ginga Shednomad Look at the positives mate. Done roughly 15 weeks of the toughest infantry training in the world and I’d imagine you learnt some great life skills. As for the girl I know it’s shit. I was with someone for 5 years before she turned around and broke up with me to date someone three weeks later. It’s natural to feel hurt, but what I found helped me is that I put my ego to one side and accepted what had happened and move on. Sounds corny but honestly always look forward because you can change that, the past will never change. Head up

Guys check out Foxy's book Battle Scars its a brilliant read.

great watch thid

I wanted them to talk about contacts and 360 no scopes.

Mental health probs are not about a reaction to environment but crises are often a catalyst for excaserpation of existing an condition.

There really needs reform in regards to how soldiers transition into civvy street. Its so crazy how they are literally just chucked out and expected to be "normal".

a conversation where two people listen

At the very end they talk about mental health equating to physical health. The one thing I can say is if they were filming narcos in Colombia, Peru and Mexico, they are still brave bloody men. And it sounds like they were well aware of the dangers, and what better way to show the narcotraficantes they're more than their equal than to go down the beach and work out on a climbing frame.

tee is awesome... just dont go for caffeine, tee can get quite crazy in those aspects...

It's just like trying tell self fuck it wat happen s happen s it's hard I defo suffer for all wat mr fox is talking about

Anybody know what they mean when they say they worked on Narcos? Security, advisors, stunt?

Imo, unless the love of your life / current partner has been through similar, or personally known someone been through similar, or worked in a traumatic job - eg paramedic, or pretty much risked their life for someone who would rather kill you, then the partner would absolutely no idea what you have been through. So probably wouldn't have a clue. Most forces & ex-forces personnel are divorced. Having to explain every nuance of military life to a pure civvi would take another lifetime.
