Supply Crate – George

Army Veteran George requested a Supply Crate because he's been struggling to focus after his service. He's hoping through gaming, he can find a way to enjoy himself that keeps his attention.

Hi, I have PTSD. I served for 12+ years and have 3 major combat deployments. One with the 75th Ranger Regiment, One with the 82nd (least favorite), and one with 1st Group. I didn’t come back from any of those the same as I went in. I’ve been out now for five years and while I do have a great support system set up and excellent mental health help from the VA, I’m struggling with focus and attention span. I can’t get through tv shows or movies without struggling. I used to love gaming. Mostly D&D or sport types (golf/football) games. I keep trying to save up to buy a console, but damned if money management isn’t one of my issues ( that I’m working on) and I just can’t seem to get there. I’d appreciate some help to get some kind of entertainment and enjoyment when I’m alone. Thank you.

PTSD often comes with symptoms that affect enjoyment of activities and ability to focus. Through gaming, Veterans are engaged mentally and physically in a way that allows them to pay attention and enjoy themselves. We hope George can find plenty of that through his new console.

Thank you all for the opportunity to connect with old friends and new ones with this great system! It is already enhancing my life.

Respectfully,

George

Glad we could help, George. (PS, we couldn't pick just one of the response photos you sent us!)
