Are you one of these idiots who post because you have to say something?
Obviously a rhetorical question.

That is for retired DEA agents isn't it??Mexico, mostly.
Just the usual recommendation. Take your pills.What do you have for me today??

PTSD is not limited to veterans. Transgenerational trauma is a real factor too. For this reason we should also consider the children of veterans, firefighters, police officers, paramedics, etc.
Not only can the behaviour of PTSD sufferers affect their children, but their colleagues too.
I remember reading a case a few years ago of a Canadian army therapist in Afghanistan. He'd never seen combat and always remained far from the front lines. His job naturally involved dealing with PTSD sufferers on a regular basis, day in, day out.
Though his medical training had taught him about transgenerational trauma, he somehow thought it couldn't happen to him. He'd come back from Afghanistan suffering PTSD. He said in spite of the fact that his education should have caused him to expect it, it still took him by surprise.
Deleted? Sorry, I don't get it.
I can't comment on other Provinces but Ontario made a big mistake years ago by closing the psychiatric facilities. It is those closings that are responsible for so many mentally ill on the streets.
The psychiatric hospitals provided timely and accurate diagnoses, safety and effective treatment for those with mental problems. When the patients were turned out there was no more monitoring of medications and no regular psychological counceling. The patients were basically on their own and unable to cope or make reasonable decisions.

Might I suggest a stool softener for starters?Just the usual recommendation. Take your pills.

and that has what to do with the op. It is concerning Canada's veterans. You know, the ones that you support sending overseas to fight and die to support your blood lust.
Sorry, I can't help you with reading comprehension.:-(
They did that with "good intentions", too, the idea being that mental patients were being stripped of their dignity in institutions and that freedom is preferable. I wonder has much dignity is left to you after sleeping on sidewalks in cardboard boxes and still you are mentally ill?
Good question. Could be a lot of reasons (it could even be no reason, as trying to get accurate numbers are difficult). PTSD, military culture are two that stand out. PTSD probably isnt the only reason as there doesn't seem to be a big problem with homeless police, nurses or volunteer firefighters. Anyways, my point is that regardless of whether a homeless person is a veteran of the military or a car salesman, we can't do much for people that aren't willing to help themselves.
The military is not the only stressful career.
