Veterans with PTSD often return to civilian life without a physical injury. Still, they soon discover they have a common underlying injury called Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). PTSD occurs after a veteran has experienced trauma, often from witnessing or participating in a combat zone. Symptoms can include night sweats, depression, anxiety, reaction to loud noises, or flashbacks. Other veterans might experience less detectable symptoms, such as an inability to pay attention or maintain relationships.
Since this ailment is not physical or visual, veterans often feel alone in their struggle. They find themselves wondering why they feel this way and why they can’t simply “get over it” and move on as if it were that easy. Fortunately, the mental health community now has much more research and insight about this complex, familiar condition millions of people—especially veterans—experience yearly.
