This week in the studio a man who joined the military at the age of 28. By age 29 he had completed BUDS training. After 8 years and a couple of combat tours with SEAL Team 7, this guest became an instructor at the Advanced Training Command. During his years of service he discovered that he had some quite visible injuries that he had sustained like a career ending back injury and a quadruple hernia. This guest noticed more than the visible injuries he was being dragged into an abyss from the long term effects of Post Traumatic Stress, Traumatic Brain Injury, Obstructive Sleep Apnea, and Insomnia. In 2017 this guest suffered a devastating blow when his friend and team mate (Ryan Larkin) took his own life after being awake for 5 days straight. It was at this moment that my guest’s life started to change, Robert dedicated his life and studies to the art and science behind sleep. No more depressants to go to sleep and no more stimulants to wake up. My guest has since been working with techniques for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and the psychology of sleep in order to help his fellow veterans, first responders, and the sleep deprived public in general. It is my pleasure to introduce you to the Founder of Sixty Two Romeo and Former Navy Seal Robert Sweetman. DTDPODCAST.net
