also, ive read a lot on how the military handles any psychological problems that arise. and they have ONLY RECENTLY started to evaluate soldiers after a certain amount of time being home.
its like they forgot that anxiety and high tension areas create a mindset that these soldiers find very dofficult to adjust to civilian mode upon return.
soldiers often write about trying to seek help from doctors in the military but they are treated as problem cases and if you are evaluated wrong can lose your benefits and money - so many soldiers do not even report problems.
look it up this is serious stuff and anyone who knows someone with psychology background, this stuff all plays major part of how these people adjust upon return or lack of adjustment.
bad things can and will happen upon introduction back into civilian population, the most problems are the ones the military tries to hide and make their soldiers feel bad for even admitting.
that plus threaTEN of losing career and livelihood coupled with pressure of superiors leads to breakdowns.
believe it or not, soldiers freak out every day. you just dont hear about it.
there are thousands of articles abouthow the military has its doctors and agencies in place to keep soldiers in line. The threat of losing your career due to war-trauma is the biggest factor. In interviews conducted by soldiers and from soldiers, many MANY admitted to hiding their trauma for years
