We're All Insane · I Was a School Shooter · 5 Jul 2026 podcast

And yeah, it all comes to a point when one of my brothers, you know, he had been in the military for a few years and he was getting out.

He had done tours in Iraq and Afghanistan.

And, you know, he was saying he wanted to go hunting with me.

And, you know, I'd been around guns a bit, but it'd been, you know, a year or two since I opened up about my depression.

My mom was like, hell no.

Yeah.

you're not going to the shooting ranges anymore with your brothers but my mom was still kind of like when i mentioned it to her she's like no that's not happening so what do i do like i go to my therapist and i'm like come on i'm doing better like i'm okay you know and

to the best of his knowledge, yeah, I'm not opening up to him about how, you know, things are downward spiraling at times.

So he brings my mom into the end of the therapy session.

I'm 16 years old.

So, you know, we'd have like the last like five minutes she could come in and maybe say something to me or say something.

I could say something to her with my therapist there to mediate.

But my therapist says the words that we'll never forget.

He says, you have your son back.

And

I didn't know just how worried my mom was about me.

As a kid, you don't understand just how much your parents are anxious and worried about you, especially as my mom had heard a year before that I was suicidal, I didn't realize just how afraid she was to come home and find me dead.

But when my therapist said, you have your son back, now she's like, I don't have to worry about that anymore.

You know, and she just thinks I can treat him like I treated him before.

And yeah, she goes and starts talking with, you know, some of her co-workers who are hunters.
