Ruchir Bakshi joined the US army after 9/11 because he wanted to serve his country and fight against terrorism. He relays to Rajiv Malhotra his experience in the Army and shares snippets of his life with the army when serving in Afghanistan and Iraq.
He also tells Rajiv how he developed post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and how when he returned back from the Army even his parents felt that he was a different person. After being on meds for a few years, and thinking that the disorder had stabilized, he experienced bouts of PTSD and was advised to seek help from the Chinmaya Mission.
