Information:
Even if you aren't a huge fan of Dr. Phil's - you may want to try and catch a replay of his Dec. 19 segment on the plight of veterans featuring an investigative report by CBS Chief Investigative Correspondent Armen Keteyian that exposed an epidemic of suicide among those who have served in the military.
It's not something that we all want to be reminded of so close to the holidays, but it is important.
Please remember... as a spouse you will be spending a lot of time with your servicemember when they return from downrange. Please look for signs of PTSD and get help immediately!!!
Contact their commander, chaplain, battalion surgeon.. or a counselor. To find a counselor in your area, or to volunteer services to the mental health counseling project, visit http://www.giveanhour.org/.
If you need to talk to someone right away.... call 1-800-273-TALK (1-800-273-8255)
God bless.
