USAF veteran & mental-health trailblazer Dr. Steve Ramos joins retired SFC Rich LaMonica to expose the hidden cost of “toughing it out” on the latest episode of The MisFitNation. If you’re a veteran, family member or ally searching for real talk on PTSD recovery, addiction treatment, and veteran suicide prevention, hit play now.

From dodging street drugs in the Bronx to teaching elite operators as a military free-fall instructor, Dr. Ramos watched teammates self-medicate rather than seek help. Today he runs More Life Center for Wellness, is board-certified & licensed, and leads the charge to make treatment a badge of strength, not weakness.
