Today's Supply Crate update comes from Jaime, a self-professed "80s baby" who knows the power of gaming in helping with his own mental health as well as others. After finding out about Stack Up, he put in a request:
As am 80s baby I grew up in the Nintendo NES era and I have always found video games to be helpful, to disconnect and forget past trauma, as of today I still game and enjoy attending conventions either as a vendor or a guest, I know what video games has done for me and for my PTSD from my military career and I want to be able to help and educate other veterans as well. I would rather my brothers disconnect into a video game than drink or do drugs. Video games have kept me clean since my exit from the Army, I have lost many brothers whom I know could of benefited from this program, I want to say thank you to the veteran that educated me about yall.
The best part about playing video games is no hangovers. Unless you pull an all-nighter. Make sure you're hydrating and taking screen breaks, people!
We sent Jaime a Supply Crate, and he sent us a reply:
I received my package today, thank you very much! You guys are doing a great job.
Thank you,
Jaime
Thank you, and we hope to see you at some of the cons we attend as well!
