He's not MK mind controlled Jeff. He probably told you exactly what the problem is; he's an ex-soldier and he's in some pain. Some people might call it PTSD. You probably watched him experience an ab-reaction. I also think it's possible that he's very aware of where the world economy is right now and what's possibly about to happen, which might add to his stress levels. I agree with you and hope he gets the help he needs.
