A recent report by King's College London suggests service personnel are twice as likely to suffer from common mental health problems such as depression and anxiety than their civilian counterparts.

Harry Jones had to leave the army when his panic attacks interfered with his work.

"It was causing an issue for me at work, overall just general sort of anxiety was the main issue... it sort of made you feel like a bit of an outsider in your own group of people," he said.

The former head of the army, General Lord Richard Dannatt, says cutting the defence budget could hit the quality of care service personnel receive.

"Even there are defence cuts...it's an absolute priority of the government to ensure spending is preserved to make sure that the medical and health needs of those who are serving and those who have served are fully maintained," he said.
