June is PTSD Awareness Month.
PTSD is one of the most common yet misunderstood challenges facing veterans. It isn’t a sign of weakness—it’s a sign that you’ve endured something life-altering. For many, trauma doesn’t end when service does. But neither does support.
What You Should Know:
- PTSD can affect anyone—combat veterans, survivors of military sexual trauma, and even those exposed to long-term operational stress.
- You're not alone. Millions of veterans have sought and found effective help.
- Treatment works. Options include cognitive processing therapy, EMDR, and peer-led recovery models.
What You Can Do Today:
- Learn more about PTSD symptoms and treatment
- Reach out to a peer or counselor
- Take one step—however small—toward support
