An Edinburgh man who spent 10 years turning to alcohol to cope with torturous memories of war and terrorism has spoken about the 'anxiety and nightmares' he's faced.
Brian Brown, 55, features in a new campaign from Help the Heroes which looks to ensure those who served in the UK Armed Forces can live well after their service. He was in a bomb blast in Northern Ireland that left him severely wounded, and fought in the first Gulf War.
There, he faced the very real threat of deadly biological weapons. The experiences left him with a 'constant, tormenting loop' in his mind, reports the Daily Record.
