7. My Illness Story

From the O2X Podcast

Transcript

This is a rebroadcast of a portion of an interview I gave on the O2X Tactical Performance Podcast on December 7, 2022. I wanted to share this segment from that episode because I got into detail about my experience suffering from severe anxiety and chronic illness as a veteran. It should help give some context as to why I started publishing RARE SENSE® content in the first place and why I feel it’s important to discuss mental health openly and honestly. If you think you are alone in your struggles, I encourage you to listen to this.

Discussion about this podcast

RARE SENSE

The Uncommon Pursuit of Mind Fitness.

RARE SENSE® is hosted by Chris Irwin, a Navy SEAL veteran who faced chronic mental and physical illness for over a decade after his military service. Throughout his journey, he delved into various aspects of mental training, including meditation, breathing exercises, emotional release techniques, and energy work. This pursuit eventually led to the complete alleviation of his symptoms, both mental and physical. He emerged with a profound understanding of what it takes to build a genuinely fit mind. On this podcast, Chris uses the knowledge he gained during that journey to discuss the modern mental health landscape while being completely vulnerable and open about his own experiences and struggles. Mental health isn't something to just treat. It's something to train.
