I would say that I have had a very good career filled with very interesting opportunities.
Of course, so many traumatic things happened in Afghanistan. The accident I had there left scars I wasn’t aware of at the time. When I returned from Afghanistan, no one understood or acknowledged what I had been through there. My condition was chalked up to me separating from my spouse, and my psychological distress was considered to have nothing to do with anything I had experienced in the past, including sexual misconduct in the Canadian Armed Forces. My experience was very much discounted, even ignored.
I would say I was treated well, because I was referred to professionals. I received services and medication, but the hardest thing I experienced in the Canadian Armed Forces was never properly acknowledged.
