Making changes is always going to be a difficult thing.

I think that if people that you love and care about

and that you trust are encouraging you to make changes,

it might be a good indication that the time is right.

Getting treatment can be hard, though,

and it can be time-consuming.

But it's only difficult and time-consuming for three,

four months at the most, where you'll need to come in

for weekly sessions and practice in between those sessions.

And so having adequate time is an important thing.

I've also heard Veterans say that in addition to their

loved ones pushing them into treatment, they're noticing

struggle, they're noticing problems at work,

they're having problems at school,

perhaps they've had some encounters with the judicial system.

When that anger is turning into hostility or aggression,

those are also good indications that it's time

to come in and get some assistance.
