JC, Service in Iraq.

"I joined the National Gulf Veterans and Family Association some years ago and they referred me to PTSD Resolution for therapy. I had some reservations about therapy because I didn't want to relive the traumatic experiences. I really loved Army life and enjoyed serving as an infantry medic. I travelled the world, learned many new skills and kept calm in some horrendous conditions. But a tour of Afghanistan in 2006 was especially traumatic as I witnessed the death of a friend. "Nothing ever prepares you for this and the Army teaches you to keep moving forward and not give in to your emotions. But my therapist gave me practical help and support so that I could help myself. I really cannot stress how unfounded my reservations were and how much the therapy has helped me. It really has changed my life. Before, I couldn't go into crowded places or even to the cinema, but now I can. My children have especially noticed the changes in me. A big thank you to all at PTSD Resolution."
