Overview

This book is an account of the journey following encounters of trauma and taking steps towards personal growth. I served in the Canadian Armed Forces for 12 years, with 5 years serving as a Close Protection Operator undertaking multiple operations in high-conflict environments - both domestically and overseas. Having completed these missions, I witnessed first-hand the damages of war and have experienced the consequences of combat. This is a tale of torment and tribulation but is also the story of reparation and recovery. A story of surviving trauma and overcoming the wounds war inflicted upon my mind. Within this book, you will read about these traumas. Personal crises and living in a state of mind that is unwell will be shared. The approach to conquering my personal mental health struggles was multi-faceted, and details of this journey will be disclosed in order to hopefully empower others to take the first step in their own recovery. Things such as various treatment styles, inter-personal connections and the accidental introduction to Equine Therapy were all supports to becoming a healthier me. It is my hope that through sharing the intricacies of what I faced, and how I committed to treatment to find meaning, purpose, and strength once again, will help others rediscover their own fortitude, resilience and resolve as they endeavour into the emotional trenches of recovery and emerge healthier, happier, and having taken their own steps towards Post Traumatic Growth.
