Soldiers Returning






                             How does war affect soldiers?



War affect USA soldier either while they are in war or not meaning that even when they are off duty they get affected mentally/emotionally, physically and socially. One of the many disorders they get when they come from war is post-traumatic disorder. Post traumatic disorder or a sickness or a anxiety disorder and it develops to a frightening threatening or an unsafe disorder. An experience like that can cause serious injury or the physical integrity of integrity of self others. 









  


                           What soldiers pass through?


Soldier witness violence most of the time in combat which is not  good for them, or any human to witness violence. But not just the kind of violence the poeple in USA thing, is much worst than that  the violence of constant death in theirs troops or killing an hostile enemy which is not like killing someones in a video game and i say this because a lot of people think that killing someone in real life is like killing a person in a video game. Well i've like any person to ask a soldier how is it to kill a human being what is it like using a gun to exterminated a person is just following orders like him.




 THE USA GOVERMENT GIVING WRONG MEDICINE TO SOLDIERS.

                      The pentagon and the wrong medicine.

Recently research has say that the pentagon is giving not just a mecine that prevent malaria but a medicine that is causing soldiers to be in continiusly problem to them, including brain injuries like that a featured soldiers have that kill 17 civilian in  Afghanistan causing a massacred.This drug is not just causing soldier to massacred civilian but also to commit suicide and homocide including even US military.

This drug to prevent malaria had been use for years among the troop. This weekly pill is responsible of many inoccent life in Afghanistan and the military should not blame the soldiers but this killer drug that cause soldier to have psychotic behavior, paranoia and hallucinations.

MEFLOQUNE DRUG 


After 6 year this drug was very closed to be dropped because of the danger that it represent to the civilian in Iraq,Afghanistan and even to the soldiers that are tempted to commit suicide because of this drug. Mefloquine is use by limited circumstances. An order by the army was put that if any soldier that suffered brain injuries this drug should not be given to them because they might fear that any of this soldiers brain injurie will get worst or that they will be tempted again to commits suicide or a homocide.





STRONGER THAN  SOLDIERS






PTSD one strong enemy 


PTSD its so trong that cause them to  get extremely stressed  and cause them have events that remind them of the war and almost losing their life. One way to control PTSD is to go to a local anesthetic into the nerve to control the disorder before it get out of contro.When this disorder is out of control it can be very bad and the might get violent. They may need to take therapy, not just talk therapy, but therapy where a person can release the emotions connected to the traumatic events, bring enormous relief and permits a person to begin a new life without the struggles of post traumatic stress.






many of the soldiers in war are diagnose with depression




How bad  its depression for soldier while they are serving


Many soldiers in Iraq do not know that they have a severe depression that may casue brain diseases or even PTSD postraumatic stress disorder which is one of the baddest diseases that a soldiers can ever have. According to military GENERAL there are 100.000 soldier on duty that are diagnose  psychological medication, antidepressants, narcotics, sedatives, anti-psychotic, and anti-anxiety drugs and the soldiers that try this drugs increase 8 time bigger than the one in 2005. an average of 8% of the soldiers that are in active duty are taking sedative. and the other that are 6% of the soldiers too are taking anti-depressant. The Pentagon should let soldiers be by their own knowledge in a combat terrain. Soldiers should have a medic  




not enough supervion of Doctors in the military

                                  Should the army have more supervission

All soldiers  should have a doctors supervision so they wont be that affected by war. A Soldiers should have atleast supervision every 2 months atleast so they know when a soldier have a severe depresion that would be much worst if this mental problem if not treated by someone that its profesional


There are 3 main symptoms that assign PSTD “Recurrent re-experiencing of the trauma” First symptoms is flashback from the was.2nd symptom is avoiding to go out of the house or are afraid to go to some places that remind them if the suffering in the war. The third symptom is signs of hyper arousal (“a state of increased psychological and physiological tension marked by such effects as reduced pain tolerance, anxiety, exaggeration of startle responses, insomnia, fatigue, and accentuation of personality traits”), sleep problems, trouble concentrating, irritability, anger, poor concentration, blackouts or difficulty remembering things, increase the problem of being excessive watchfulness to a problem.
 
A disorder that is like the PTSD is Acute stress disorder “symptoms persist from two days to four weeks, and a fewer number of traumatic symptoms are required to make the diagnosis as compared to PTSD”. Another disorder that is like PTSD is C-PTSD (complex post-traumatic disorder). C-PTSD is “is a psychological injury that result from protracted exposure to prolonged social and or interpersonal.” Psychological trauma” is trauma and they loss control of it. In the context of captivity the lack of viable is an escape route for the patient. C-PTSD is distinct from, but similar to (PTSD)”. What different C-PTSD and PTSD is the loss of self confidence, trust, self-worth, trust, people it helps the patient to revitalize. And more important loss of a sense of self.
 
In 2010 171,423 were diagnosed with PTSD and were deployed from Iraq and Afghanistan out of 593,634 who were patients at VA. Some soldiers with PTSD have killed coming back of war and have become divorced. PTSD affects their children in many ways as well. Kids watch how they act and the reactions they see coming from that person. It affects the family’s feelings toward that person because they are afraid of getting hurt. The soldier with the PTSD that is not being controlled is a threat to society and they can get incarcerated. Even some other soldiers end up in a mental asylum, for the rest of their life with no visits from family or friends.

Suicide rate is very big on soldiers that have PTSD because they get scared and mix up the events from real life. Researchers say that the marijuana can help with PTSD. They say that marijuana can free the stress that carries the disorder and can calm them down and the symptoms. In 2006 Tod Mikuriya wrote a paper on the suffering of people with PTSD and how marijuana helped them. He compared marijuana to commonly prescribed medications and noted that the former worked better to control chronic stress, in his opinion cannabis or marijuana should be considered as a very good treatment for traumatic stress disorders. What doctors are afraid of is that veterans taking the drug will take advantage of it but also get addicted by it.
