Resource Blog for PTSD: Operation Iraqi Freedom/ Operation Enduring Freedom Combat Veterans

Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) can occur after someone goes through a traumatic event like combat, assault, or disaster. Most people have some stress reactions after a trauma. If the reactions don't go away over time or disrupt your life, you may have PTSD. Research has shown that Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is one of the most prevalent psychiatric disorders in veterans of Operation Iraqi Freedom and Enduring Freedom (OIF/OEF).

PTSD is treatable. You are not alone. There are several different ways to get help. You have options. Your benefits and eligibility have been earned and are your right. You are not taking away from another Veteran by accessing services, in fact, you are ensuring that the services remain for the next Veteran that may need them just by using them!
