Suicide Epidemic Amongst Military Veterans - Part 1

http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2007/11/13/cbsnews_investigates/main3496471.shtml

After returning home from one or multiple tours in Iraq or Afghanistan, many veterans will quickly find that they are unable to cope with the effects of war entirely on their own. Though different individuals will be impacted by Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) in different ways, some will need help processing the numbness that they feel - their inability to experience sadness, anger, fear or even joy. Others will need help overcoming those times when they cannot stop reliving the traumatic event either in their waking life or within their numbness. Still others will need to re-learn ways of becoming attached to family members and friends, how to form relationships without allowing their anxiety and trauma to influence their actions.

Are you or a loved one suffering from the effects of war? Have you been diagnosed with PTSD? It is imperative that you seek medical attention immediately.
