Degree understand your concerns went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. The condition of your friend needs further studies. Many Soldiers do have emotional and stress related problems. They are posted to far away and difficult places and their way of living is always troublesome. They do not have enough emotional support from near and dear. Of course, we have telephones now, but in some military camps, telephones or mobiles are not allowed. Once they live in such circumstances under continuous stress, some sort of temper tantrums are bound to occur. If the conditions do not get under control, medical intervention may be necessary. Request your friend to undergo relaxation techniques and breathing exercises. If you require more of my help in this aspect, Please post a direct question to me in this website. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. I shall prescribe some psychotherapy techniques which should help you cure your condition further. Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications. Good luck.
