Army medic on the horrors she saw on the frontline that left her suicidal

Amber Guymer-Hosking was an Army Medic for 11 years, serving in Afghanistan, Kenya, Malaysia and Brunei. But after being medically discharged in 2016, her mental health deteriorated and the horrors she witnessed on the battlefield led to nightmares, flashbacks and, finally, suicide attempts. Please take a few minutes to listen to her story. If you’d like to help veterans like Amber, you can do so by playing the Veterans’ Lottery.
