Part 1: How an Army Veteran Explained PTSD to His Preschool Son

from Restore 22 Coffee Roadshow · host Restore 22

Army veteran Mathius Carter deployed to Iraq in 2003 during Operation Iraqi Freedom. Like so many others, Carter's military service left him with physical and unseen wounds that continue to affect him nearly 20 years after separating from the Army. After becoming a father, he soon learned he needed a way to explain his challenges to his son. Carter candidly describes his military experience in part one of this episode. Part two will cover his road to recovery and how he came to write the book Instead of Sheep: A Soldier's Way of Explaining PTSD to His Son.
