Addiction is not just an issue faced by civilians. Rates of addiction and suicide are also increasing among veterans. This problem extends beyond just one group, as it is connected with factors like homelessness, depression, and PTSD. Many veterans attempt to self-medicate their mental health challenges with drugs and alcohol. The primary difference lies in treatment options not being limited by private insurance. The VA medical system provides various forms of assistance, though navigating the system can be challenging.
This class addresses the unique problems related to veteran addiction, explores treatments such as CAM, and discusses residential and other programs specifically designed for this population.
