Abstract: This qualitative study explored the experiences of U.S. military veterans seeking peer-to-peer support for mental health services after COVID-19. The study investigated how veterans perceive the role of peer-to-peer support in addressing mental health challenges, particularly in the context of social isolation, anxiety, and other COVID-19 related stressors. Using semi-structured interviews, data were collected from veterans who sought peer-to-peer support services after COVID-19. A total of 14 veterans participated in this study, providing insights into their experiences accessing and utilizing peer-to-peer support mental health services after COVID-19. Thematic analysis identified key themes, including the importance of shared lived experiences, the role of trust and camaraderie in peer relationships, and the perceived effectiveness of peer-to-peer support led interventions in mitigating mental health concerns. Findings revealed that peer-to-peer support fostered a sense of belonging and understanding, which veterans often find lacking in traditional mental health services. The study highlights the need for expanded peer-to-peer support programs tailored to veterans’ unique experiences and suggests avenues for enhancing their integration into existing mental health care systems. These results contribute to a growing body of research on veterans’ mental health and underscore the critical role of community-based support in post pandemic recovery efforts.
