Your Service Member is Experiencing PTSD; What Can You Do to Help?
Posted on
It has been estimated that up to 20% of service members returning to the United States from combat will experience symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Some don’t believe that, however, as it has been argued that 20% is much too low, and that the majority of returning service members will experience those same symptoms at some point, whether it be paranoia, nightmares, memory problems, or something else entirely.
Regardless of which number is ultimately correct, 100% of these service members return to someone—mother, father, spouse, sister, brother, friend. And, whomever it may be, they will likely witness a change in their loved one. It can be difficult to not only understand, but to accept, and that’s why we’ve compiled this list.
