Royal Marines Terror Attack

In 1989, the IRA detonated a time bomb at a Royal Marines School in Kent. 10 marines died, another 21 were seriously injured. Andrew Gronkowski survived the blast, but was left with long-term psychological issues. He had survivor's guilt, and in April the following year, Andrew overdosed. Having suffered with chronic PTSD for 27 years, Andrew really struggled to hold onto anything, having 40 jobs and 35 house moves over that time. His PTSD manifested into, anxiety, aggression, OCD, nightmares, flashbacks, self harm, a fear of crowded places and public transport. In a desperate bid to get his life back, Andrew enlisted The Speakmans.
