Scuba diving has increased my mental health by helping me find an outlet that isn’t self-destructive and has been healing for both my body and mind. While diving, you need to be with a buddy. This has helped me to form lifelong friendships and bonds because you grow to trust these people with your life just as you would your fellow service members in the military.
