Andrew Marr: Special Forces Green Beret, Warrior Angels Foundation Co-Founder, Author of Tales from the Blast Factory

While the deep-rooted effects of traumatic brain injury are not yet fully understood, Andrew Marr, retired Special Forces, Green Beret, Warrior Angels Foundation Chairman and Co-Founder, as well as co-author of Tales from the Blast Factory, brings to life his actual experiences and transparency as it relates to bringing resolve to his brain injury issues, and coming back to a fulfilled life serving others with similar conditions. Listen in as Andrew gets real with our listening audience. He has an epic testimony to tell. In this episode you will hear:

Andrew’s story is that of the principles of resiliency after traumatic brain injuries.
You don’t have an emotional problem. You have a brain health problem.
There are real solutions available.
I lost complete control of all emotions.
Depression, anxiety, alcoholism, and the inability to make good decisions were daily occurrences.
Define what it is you want to be and start being that.
I realized at that moment that I was of no value to him [my son] or my family in the condition that I was in.
My mental state was going to ruin the things I said I loved in my life.
3 promises I made to myself:
1. I was going to return to be the man of my pre-injury status.
2. I was going to find a way to come off all the medication I was told I would have to be on for the rest of my life.
3. After accomplishing #1 & #2, I was going to spend the rest of my life helping other people just like myself to get thru it and get to the other side.
Even though none of my problems were fixed yet, I now had a compass, direction, and destination.
There are not words to describe what I experienced in that state of consciousness [with psychedelics).
Any identification of self completely evaporated.
I understood the interconnectedness of all things.
I was engulfed in intelligent love.
What the microscope is to biology and what the telescope is to astronomy, psychedelics is to human psychology.
