SOS Israel is an organization that works to raise awareness about the growing PTSD phenomenon, especially after October 7 and the ongoing war. Its new initiative: "Thank you for your Service" is a mentoring project that pairs IDF veterans dealing with PTSD with those most recently affected – in the Iron Swords war, providing support and building resilience together. One of the mentors in the program is Or Eilon, 28, who served as a combat medic from 2014-2016.  He spoke to KAN's Naomi Segal about his experience, and how sharing his story and helping others also helps his own healing process.  (Photo: Ronen Fadida, from SOS PTSD exhibition)See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
