TW: sexual assault, rape, suicideThis week on the podcast, Em and Alex are joined by Gemma Morgan. When Gemma joined the Army, she discovered very quickly how she had to behave as a woman to get by: prove your strength by pushing yourself harder than you ever thought possible, but ensure you act small enough so you don't step on the toes of your male counterparts. This balancing act proved near impossible under the weight of oppressive misogyny deeply entrenched within the structure of the British Armed Forces, where razors were supplied for men to shape their facial hair while sanitary products for her and others that needed them weren't even a consideration. Gemma's Army career didn't go to plan, with trauma, abuse and PTSD all featuring in her story. She explains how she went from outstanding soldier to suffering a near-fatal mental health crisis, and why she is now demanding change. Gemma found help and hope, and wants to show others that they can too.If you have been affected by any topics in this episode, or you want to talk to someone, you can call the Samaritans free, anytime, at 116 123If you are a member of the Armed Forces community and you need help, you can call Help For Heroes weekdays 9-5 on 0300 303 9888 you can also submit a form anytime at https://www.helpforheroes.org.uk/application/You can buy Gemma's book, Pink Camouflage, here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Pink-Camouflage-soldiers-resilience-leadership/dp/1804251232Follow us on Instagram @shouldideletethatEmail us at shouldideletethatpod@gmail.comEdited by Daisy GrantMusic by Alex Andrew Hosted on Acast.

This week on Wellbeing we talk with Nick Martin, a Falklands War veteran with PTSD. Nick joined the British Navy in 1977 and when the Falkland Islands were invaded on April 1st 1982, he was soon deployed there. The Falklands War was a ten-week undeclared war between Argentina and the United Kingdom. Nick was serving on the Atlantic Conveyor. In May 1982, the ship was hit by two Argentine missiles causing Nick to suffer a fractured skull, broken jaw and dislocated shoulder as a result. However, it was the mental struggles that followed and the PTSD that affected him for the next 34 years that motivated him to seek help. Today, Nick is involved in Help For Heroes, a British charity which provides lifelong recovery support to British Armed Forces. In this episode, Nick talks about his service in the Falklands War, the wartime experiences he had while there, how his Falklands experience affected him in the form of PTSD on his return, how his PTSD affected his relationships, his journey to getting help, and where he is at today in his PTSD journey. "Its forty years ago now, and it has almost ruled my whole life. The PTSD that I finally got diagnosed about six or seven years ago, has ruled everything I did." - Nick Martin on this episode of Wellbeing Tune in next week when we speak with an Iraq War veteran about their PTSD journey.
