CTE Almost Killed Him Hyperbaric Therapy Saved His Life | Raw Minds S2 EP65

Welcome back to Raw Minds. I’m your host Erick.Tonight I sit down with William Person, a former nine-year Team USA Bobsled athlete who pushed his body and brain to the absolute limit — and paid the price in ways most people never see.After years of extreme impacts and head trauma, William began experiencing CTE-like symptoms that slowly destroyed his memory, emotional control, and sense of self. At his lowest point, he could barely get up off the floor. He lived in confusion, depression, intense headaches, and a deteriorating brain that doctors struggled to explain.Like so many men, he tried to push through it in silence.Then everything changed.William discovered Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, and for the first time in years, his mind began to come back online. His thinking cleared. His vision sharpened. His emotions stabilized. And his life — which he thought was slipping away — returned with purpose.Today, William is on a mission to raise awareness around brain injuries, CTE, men’s mental health, and untreated trauma in athletes, military veterans, and civilians. He is working to open a nonprofit CTE Recovery Center where people battling brain injury symptoms can receive treatment at no cost.This episode is about survival, healing, and doing something meaningful with the pain you’ve lived through.If you or someone you love has experienced personality changes, memory loss, rage, depression, or unexplained mental decline, this conversation may answer questions you’ve been carrying for years.CTE and brain injury explainedLife as a Team USA bobsled athleteExtreme head trauma and long-term damageMemory loss and identity collapseDepression and silent sufferingHyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT)Healing the brain instead of masking symptomsMen’s mental health and accountabilityVeterans, athletes, and untreated traumaBuilding a nonprofit CTE Recovery CenterHelping families recognize warning signsTurning pain into purposeThis is not a soft conversation.It’s real.
