help set up a better care plan for Veterans suffering or might be suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder(PTSD).

Created by M.S. on January 29, 2014

1 in 5 veterans returning home are diagnosed with PTSD. Veterans make up 7 percent of the American population and 20 percent of the American suicide rate.This is unacceptable! The plan that has been set up for veterans now is a joke. Veterans with PTSD don't even know they have it and the one's that do have it don't want to confront it because it continues to go unanswered. What happens is a veteran will seek help and a doctor will throw all these prescriptions at them until they're taking 10 prescriptions a day. Veterans find themselves being held together by medication. Who in there right mind wants to explain to someone why their on so many medications and what each one is for. If your having to take 3 medications for insomnia and 2 for nerves, then you're body eventually shuts down!
