Brian Reese shares his transformational journey of overcoming mental and physical pain to create one of the world’s largest communities of U.S. military veterans, called VA Claims Insider.
“Surround yourself with fellow veterans. The patriots and the heroes. Those who raised their right hand and took an oath to defend freedom. But most of all surround yourselves with brothers and sisters who feel your pain, who know your struggles, and who would do anything for you and you for them.”
– Brian Reese
WARNING: “I’m About to Get Uncomfortably Vulnerable”
I’m scared.
I’m embarrassed.
I’m in pain.
But deep down I know a fellow veteran needs to hear this today…
Maybe that person is you.
Stay with me.
This is going to get uncomfortable.

Brian Reese: “I Should Be Dead…”
PTSD.
Bipolar.
Anxiety.
Depression.
Insomnia.
Alcohol.
Drugs.
Overeating.
Divorce.
Lost a job.
Misery.
Pain.
Fear.
Self-destruction.
Suicidal thoughts.
That was me just a few short years ago…
I lost my identity and sense of purpose after leaving the military.
I didn’t know who I was anymore.
I thought I was the only one dealing with mental and physical pain.
So, I did what many veterans do…
I suffered alone in silence.
Brian Reese VA Claims Insider: “I Nearly Drank Myself to Death…”
I should be dead.
I was shattered and broken.
I couldn’t stand on my own two feet.
I didn’t even recognize the man in the mirror.
I was an alcoholic and a drug addict.
I did anything and everything I could do to numb the pain.
But then in my deepest, darkest pain and suffering…
No Question “God Showed Up”
HE told me I was His son.
HE told me I was created for a greater purpose.
HE told me I was here to serve veterans and give them hope.
HE told me to use my pain and suffering for good:
✅ TO CREATE A COMMUNITY WHERE VETERANS BELONG.
✅ TO GIVE VETERANS HOPE & JOY AGAIN.
✅ TO HELP VETERANS CELEBRATE LIFE CHANGE.
And here’s what happened to me personally along the way:
- I (finally) got help for my mental health issues and physical pain.
- I (quit) drinking, doing drugs, and binge eating.
- I (discovered) love, happiness, and connection again by serving veterans.
I’m alive today because of YOU.
THANK YOU!
I mean it.
You Saved My Life.
I exist to help you create the life you were meant to live, regardless of how stuck, frustrated, alone, and unhappy you might feel right now…
My Purpose is to Help Veterans Celebrate LIFE CHANGE!
There is a way out.
You can begin to heal.
You can reclaim your identity.
You can be happy again.
I believe I’m alive today to show you “HOW.”
Please enjoy this 20-minute very raw and very real video of my story.
