My exhibition 'Living with PTSD' took six years to plan and put together. It couldn't have happened without support from the Arts Council and the National Lottery.

Produktbeschreibung
My exhibition 'Living with PTSD' took six years to plan and put together. It couldn't have happened without support from the Arts Council and the National Lottery. This book is an accompaniment to the rolling exhibition that took place between 2013 and 2014, offering further insight and shared experiences. From my own perspective, it's an important piece of work because it shines a light into a much misunderstood condition. People living with PTSD and related mental health conditions are often misunderstood, subjected to stigma, discriminated against and ostracised. In the case of Veterans, they're often people that have survived traumatic incidents, having risked their lives to do their duty - only to come home to shattered lives and a society that is, at best, misinformed of their plight. Wolf Photography is a 'Not-For-Profit' therapeutic work project. For more details please visit www.wolf-photography.com.

Autorenporträt
I started writing poetry in 1981, while serving with the Royal Air Force Police. It helped to release some of the tension that had built up during my two year tour in Northern Ireland (1983-1985). When I left the RAF I was not told about PTSD and no diagnosis was made on my discharge medical. No one, including myself knew that I had the condition. We weren't encouraged to talk about such things in those days and suffered in silence ... much like many of us do nowadays. After a six month break I served in the Metropolitan Police. My career in the civilian police was cut short after an incident involving an explosion in London which triggered a flashback to an incident in Belfast.
