This Vietnam Vet Had PTSD For Years -- And He Didn't Know It | Personal

RP Members, Connections, and Friends veteran Tucker Smallwood was wounded during the Vietnam War and almost died. He returned home, where he created a new life and found success as an actor. But years later, when he experienced a triggering event, he realized he was depressed and was diagnosed with PTSD. This is an all-too-common story for veterans, and Smallwood is hoping to raise awareness for other veterans who haven’t yet sought out help.

If you have already received help from your primary provider at the VA, then Victory for Veterans Foundation has another program called "Warriors for Life" (WFL) Group and Community Service/Support where you can meet with other veterans that have gone down this path with PTSD and share your story and those things that have worked for you. Great community service/support and group interaction outside the VA with many RallyPoint Members already attending.

Come join us on Sunday evenings for WFL - reach out to me for more information on the WFL program at: [login to see]
