On BBC news this morning, they were discussing mental health support for war veterans suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.
They talked to one man about the support he was receiving and how this was beneficial to him. Psychological support was helping him to live a normal life again without suffering from PTSD, which made him aggressive and fearful.
For war veterans, a simple environmental stimuli, such as hearing an ambulance siren, could trigger distressing flashbacks and seriously disrupt their lives.
Offering veterans support with this, in my opinion, is a great thing.
