Sadly, far too many Veterans and First Responders suffer in silence. Many consider a soldier’s service over when they return home, however, the emotional distress brought on by the trauma they have faced is long-lasting. Our treatments provide Veterans and First Responders with the help they need—allowing them to live their lives to the fullest.
Post traumatic stress disorder is very common in Veterans as 9% of soldiers suffer from PTSD immediately upon return from deployment. This increases to 31% after a year. However, PTSD is often undiagnosed and therefore left untreated. Additionally, PTSD can lead to a struggle with substance abuse as over 20% of Veterans experience both. In fact, addiction to drugs and alcohol affects an alarming amount of Veterans with 39% of Veterans from recent conflicts battling alcoholism.
Hardships such as substance abuse, sexual trauma, and PTSD can lead Veterans down a dark road—some tragically taking their own lives. In 2014, almost 20,000 US Veterans committed or attempted suicide. Suicide is not the only result of untreated addiction and mental illness. Homelessness is also a common struggle with Veterans making up about 11% of homeless adults. These devastating consequences highlight the need for effective treatment options that are specifically designed for Veterans.
