Patty Smith joined the reg forces at a time there were not many other women in the Army. At 30 years service - experiencing misogyny and traumatic memories of driving amongst land mines in the fields of Bosnia - and just days away from retirement, she was ordered to be assessed for potential mental health injuries.

Medically retired, hospitalised as a result of domestic violence, and in the process of distancing herself from her biological family, everything in her life rapidly about-faced.

This Canadian Armed Forces veteran shares the ups and downs of her ongoing journey, as well as her advice for others who are struggling.
