Veteran Challenges – Readjustment to Civilian Life
The military provides a sense of purpose, well-defined roles and chain of command, camaraderie, honor and mission.
These qualities are not found in civilian life in the same way. For many, this results in loss of identity and meaning in life. Returning veterans often find that adapting to civilian life involves unique readjustment challenges.
Readjustment to civilian life challenges are significant and can generate enormous stress and anxiety. Many turn to alcohol or drugs to ‘self-medicate’. Unfortunately, this only makes the situation worse.

Veterans Serving in Recent Conflicts Readjustment Challenges
The troops engaged in Iraq and Afghanistan have different demographics and readjustment difficulties than in previous conflicts.
Troops deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan included:
· More Women
· Younger Troops
· Parents of Young Children
· More reserve and National Guard troops
Troops in the reserves or National Guard were often caught by surprise with deployments.
The rapid departure caused upheaval – and often conflict – within families.
As a result, returning home is more challenging and involves more stress for those veterans.
Veterans of the Iraq and Afghanistan conflicts experienced a higher incidence of IED injuries.
The types of close contact injuries inflicted by improvised explosive devices (IEDs) are much more serious than those associated with land mines,
This caused more serious medical events in general; including traumatic brain injury.

What is PTSD?
Emotional and psychological trauma occurs when extraordinarily stressful events shatter an individual’s usual sense of security. As a result, there is a feeling of being temporarily helpless in a dangerous world.
Most people who experience traumatic events have temporary difficulty adjusting and coping. If trauma symptoms get worse – or last more than 3 months and interfere with day-to-day functioning – you may have PTSD.
If you are a veteran or would like to refer a veteran to our PTSD programs, please call 866-303-6275 for a Confidential Consultation.

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition triggered by witnessing or experiencing traumatic or terrifying events
PTSD Self-Medication
Veterans often use alcohol or drugs to self-medicate PTSD symptoms. This does nothing to resolve the underlying trauma – and usually makes it much worse.
PTSD Symptoms
PTSD symptoms can include flashbacks, hypervigilance, avoidance, nightmares and severe anxiety; as well as uncontrollable or intrusive thoughts about the event.
You Are Not Alone!
Treatments for PTSD, Trauma and Co-Occurring Substance Abuse (Dual Diagnosis) are Available.
And Treatment Works!
Please call 866-303-6275 for a Confidential Consultation.
Stages of PTSD Healing
If you or a friend or loved one are experiencing PTSD – it is helpful to understand the stages of development and healing.
Shock Stage
“Did this really happen?” Withdrawal, hypervigilance and easily startled are common reactions in the shock stage. Some are able to recognize PTSD symptoms immediately. For others, it may take some time.
Denial Stage
“I am fine!” Many individuals do not accept any limitation easily. They experience strong feelings brought on by memories of the traumatic event, but will attempt to avoid the difficult emotions. Often, avoidance is done unconsciously. This is an especially vulnerable time when many begin to use use alcohol or other substances to numb difficult emotions or memories.
Short Term Recovery Stage
An adjustment to everyday life and return to a sense of normalcy is achieved. However, the underlying trauma is not resolved. Nightmares and intrusive thoughts continue to make life difficult. Alcohol and substance abuse may be present.
Long Term Recovery Stage
Individuals will continue to deal with the after-effects of trauma; including anxiety and nightmares. However with treatment, these symptoms can be reduced and eventually resolve. With treatment and support from professionals, family, and friends – those with PTSD can return to a calmer and sober life. Life can be good again!
