Right Here With You | A Country Song About PTSD, Family, and Faith

This song is written from my heart as a husband, a father, and a police officer learning how PTSD can quietly create distance from the people we love most.

There are nights when I’m physically home, but mentally somewhere else. PTSD doesn’t always look like anger or chaos — sometimes it looks like silence, emotional distance, and struggling to be present, kind, and connected with your wife and kids. Without fully understanding why, we can self-sabotage the very relationships we value most.

This song is about that struggle — but it’s also about hope.

Through faith in Jesus Christ, I’m learning that PTSD doesn’t get the final word. Healing isn’t instant, but freedom is real. Christ meets us in the middle of our brokenness and teaches us how to stay, how to love, and how to be present again.

This is for spouses who wait patiently, for children who don’t always understand, and for first responders, veterans, and families walking this road together. You are not alone, and there is hope.

This song was created with the assistance of AI as a tool, but the lyrics, message, and story are original and deeply personal.
