Hi All,
I came across this new forum by accident. However I am glad to see that Veterans have a space to discuss topics that are meaningful to them and to connect with former serving members. I served in the ADF for 11 years leaving in the early 2000’s.
It gave me a lot of opportunities that one would not be able to do in a civilian career. Mental health is important and I feel part of the lived experience community. Looking forward to see how this forum can support veterans across a range of domains.

Hey @Rising-Up, thank you for sharing your experiences with the community!
Sounds like you had some great opportunities with your service in the ADF. I'm really glad that you have found a lived experience community.
Great to have you here in the Veterans space!
Take care
