It can be easier to find reasons not to get help than to take the first step. Here is what some of the Veterans have said: 

• I didn't know it could be treated.
• I don't have the time.
• I'll look weak.
• I never served in combat.
• I'll fix it myself.
• I can't afford the treatment.
• I'll get fired or looked over for a promotion.

When you make the choice to get help, you'll wonder why you waited so long - you'll know that getting into treatment was the best possible move for yourself and the people you love.
