A lot of Veterans will not get help because of pride.
They will come home and say,
"I will not ask my country for anything.
I will not go to the VA.
I will not go to the hospital and say, help me,

because there's a stigma attached to it.

my little stepson the other day,
12 year old little boy looked at me.
I said, "Yeah I have to go interview about a PTSD thing."
And he says, "Oh, the cuckoo stuff?"

just another condition.

It's treatable but it has to be recognized.
