>> the realm where that is most studied is with ptsd. combat trauma and sexual violence ptsd where you expansion of amygdala and over generalized into it beg a terrifying world out there. my lab for a while was doing gene therapy work on trying to protect the amygdala in ways a circuit trick is useful because it will not help a mammal but my sense is ptsd is not anything that is cured. there is no clear biological cure for it but something fascinating and horrifying emerged. ptsd is about fear, the terror or trauma of people trying to kill you, watching your bodies get killed, it is anchored in fear and the fear of the violence that may harm you and those who you love but the whole field has to accommodate extraordinary finding in recent years which is drone operators get ptsd. they get ptsd at the same rate as to warriors out in the battlefield. drone operators living in a suburb of edward air force base who get up in the morning and remember to drop off the clothing at the cleaners and get into traffic jams and barely make it to work o

you mention ptsd.fly, you lost your childhood best friend to ptsd related suicide back in 2012. tell us a little bit about that. are we doing enough in that area? >> i think the biggest problem we have a ptsd right now is at the pendulum swings both ways. for the longest time, we would not recognize it. now that we do, it's a catch all, it's a misnomer. we're not finding the actual real problems that veterans are suffering from. this is the biggest problem, comparing yourself to 330 million americans as they put them subs on facebook and feeling like a failure. some of it might be ptsd, some might be classical depression and anxiety and other psychological problems. they're not preparing veterans to transfer into the civilian sector. simply finding the right medication or allowing for the right, that doesn't fix anyone. >> heather: 20 veterans taking their live each day on average. thank you so much for joining us and we appreciate you sharing your personal experience. >> thanks for having me on. stay
