I am a medically retired army veteran who uses gaming to cope with my PTSD.I have multiple combat deployments overseas. Returning home from war and trying to reintegrate was very hard for me. I didn't have no one to lean on. No one to hear me on my downiest hour. VA system too back logged, nowhere for me to turn and clueless to the world because the military is all I knew. I was introduced to a discord of people like me; what I called, "broken." These people have given me a spark in my life. Joining this community has probably been the best decision I have done for my mental health. I know I am still anti-social, but this community makes me feel a little more normal.
