PTSD & Jobs

PTSD or post traumatic stress disorde is a serious issue for many military personnel.  While the tv show Castle showed how police officers deal with PTSD, it is much different and yet similar. 

It is a known fact that unemployment for those dealing with PTSD is higher than what many realize.  Even if the person dealing with PTSD is employed, it affects everyone.  Military wives must seek professional help if they feel that their spouse is not making progress.

Seeking employment especially during these challenging times is a challenge.  It is best to network among friends, family and someone in the career profession.  Taking a temporary job or doing odds and ends is better than nothing. 

People want to help and yet people are hurting because of these dismal economic times.  An interesting blog Rainmaker this retired military man provides some resources on it.
