As part of the Devote December series, we're talking to people who have used physical fitness to improve their mental health. Matt Spaid is an incredible example of just that.
Matt is a former Marine and current firefighter who developed PTSD and is sharing his journey with us.
In part 1 of the story, we'll hear how Matt's PTSD developed, how it led to the loss of his fire department job, his coaching job, and in his words "I lost my mind."
Matt continued a rollercoaster of events, eventually leading him to Camp Hope, where he was able to start building his life up again.
A special thank you to Matt and his wife Lori, for using their story to help others.
