Six real-life coping skills for veterans suffering from PTSD

November 16, 2015
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) occurs after an individual experiences a traumatic or life-threatening event.

For more than a decade, the Social Security Administration has been expediting Social Security Disability Benefits for Wounded Warriors.

Veterans Health Problems

July 9, 2015

Fireworks Can Trigger PTSD

July 2, 2015
It may be America’s birthday, but not everyone looks forward to Fourth of July celebrations ― especially military veterans suffering from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. Ironically, the most patriotic holiday ― and the loud and vibrant fireworks that come with it ― can be extremely nerve-wracking for veterans who fought for our freedoms.
