There was a moment when Mark Long had decided he didn't want to live with the effects of his PTSD any longer. He had been a police officer for 15 years and the trauma had piled up inside to where he needed help. And he was eventually able to find a program in California that saved his life through peer counselling and support. From that, Cracked Armour clothing was born to raise awareness of PTSD and those still struggling. That project has led him to buying a house on an acreage in the Annapolis Valley that will be known as Returning Warriors Ranch. Eventually, it too will be a place for first responders to go for support and healing. And to help with that dream, this Sunday, June 5th, will be the first Annual Mental Health Conference. Mark says a lot of the response so far has been from family and friends of the people who are dealing with PTSD. And it's helping him as he shares his story of addictions and healing from the trauma he's witnessed as a police officer.
