Hello, do you have experience in treating people who have PTSD who are not in the military, or just servicemen? -
If a family member suspects that their service member is suffering from PTSD, how should they go about seeking help for their family member without causing harm to their career or backlash from their command?
-
If someone is having a flashback or attack from PTSD, is there anything the person can do at home to minimize the anxiety attack till they are able to seek professional help?
-
Are there any programs we can sign our friends and family up for to help when they first get back from being deployed?
-
What is being done in connection with the military to help with this issue before it even begins?
-
What are we supposed to do if our family members won't admit there's an issue?
-
-
Can you share the help line you mentioned in the news report that people can call?
