Rolling for Recovery, a book about Gaming and Mental Health
I found this book on Amazon while I was searching for something to help me build a gaming experience for my brother with Autism. The book is called Rolling for Recovery: Why Gaming Helps Veterans with Mental Health Challenges. It mostly focuses on how games like Dungeons and Dragons, Warhammer and more help with issues like PTSD, Depression and Isolation. The author also wrote a gaming module for D&D to help understand how to build a game to include tools and skills without the game being medical. I found it very helpful and informative. It’s not a deep dive into psychological aspects but very, I guess the terms is layman….easy to grasp.
I hope it helps anyone who may have friends or loved ones that could use some insight on these topics.
Have a great day everyone and keep gaming!!
