This is the first time I address on camera that I have been abused and that I have PTSD. So far it has always been in writing or implied. Now I have said it, without fear, without shame, knowing the power that I have to heal.
In this video, I talk about how elements from video games helped me with certain PTSD symptoms and certain other aspects of the mental illness with which I live. I draw some examples from Dragon Age, SWTOR and such. How when symptoms were intense, I used video games to alleviate these symptoms and get me through some of the rougher patches of my healing process.
