A Lanarkshire veteran living with post traumatic stress disorder is calling for a fairer representation of the condition in films and television.
Today (Monday) marks National PTSD Awareness Day and David Dent, a former critical care nurse in the army medical services, says there are too many negative connotations of mental health in the media.
The 55-year-old believes it has led to those affected being judged wrongly by employers and society in general.
