Dr. Donald "Skip" Mondragon is a physician and a twenty-six-year Army veteran. Skip spent thirty months in combat zones, and is a National Veterans Wrestling Champion. Towards the end of his army career Skip found himself in a fetal position under his desk overwhelmed with the depths of his depression. Skip eventually gained the courage to ask for help and through his recovery decided that he wanted to spread the message to his military community that “even tough guys get depressed.” Skip believes that his team of supports are what helped him get through this challenging stage of life and encourages all to not attack depression alone.  Skip continued to spread his message in his book  “Wrestling Depression is Not For Wimps!” You can find more about Skip on his website here: https://wrestlingisnotforwimps.com/
