Breaking the Stigma 🫂 Officials in the Pentagon have dropped the “D” from #PTSD for several years now. ➖ . This change has helped break down the barriers 🛑associated with PTSD treatment for many #veterans . Many service members report feelings of shame 😞 associated with seeking help for their symptoms. Breaking 🔨 the stigma of PTSD is crucial , When the focus is shifted away from classifying the condition as a mental health disorder instead of a normal response to trauma, it can open the door to treatment for many who are suffering. If you or someone you know is suffering homelessness or risk of ….post-traumatic stress and are using substances 🍷 🍺 to help relieve the pain, know that help is available. 👇🏽 #Reachout to and one of our representatives @vchcvethelp We can discuss an appropriate treatment plan and make valuable connections. Don’t #sufferinsilence — help is a phone call away. (at Veterans & Community Housing Coalition - Vethelp) https://www.instagram.com/p/CS6esZFri9C/?utm_medium=tumblr
