The best way that I find to help with this is find something to laugh about. You know, maybe not remember tomorrow, but more or less at my age level, but I'm in a class with 20 and 30-year-olds for the most part.
Imagine facing the unimaginable and finding a way to laugh through it. That’s the story of Eric Payne, a 23-year veteran of the Canadian Armed Forces, who turned a devastating motorcycle accident and subsequent PTSD diagnosis into a journey of resilience and humor. In this episode of 'Mental Health News Radio', Eric opens up about how laughter became his unexpected yet powerful coping mechanism.
From his service on HMCS HALIFAX to becoming a key figure in the Soldier On Program, Eric's story is one of transformation and advocacy. He discusses the crucial role of social support and how genetics play into mental health treatment, offering a fresh perspective on recovery. Whether you're a veteran, know someone who is, or just need a dose of inspiration, Eric's tale is a testament to the healing power of humor and community.
