Journey to Recovery
Two veterans share their stories about life with PTSD.
“Treatment from Combat Stress changed my life”
Army veteran Dean and Navy veteran Paul bravely volunteered to share their stories on camera to talk about the impact of PTSD on themselves and their families. Both joined up in their teens and like many of the veterans we treat, while they struggled with mental health issues after leaving the military, it wasn’t until they reached breaking point that they finally found sought help, many years after leaving the Forces.
Watch the film below to hear more about their stories.
Both men credit Combat Stress with giving them the tools to manage their PTSD.
As Paul says in the film: “Veterans with PTSD don’t feel alive or part of life. But Combat Stress is alive and vibrant – life starts again here."
