U.S. veterans face a disproportionate risk of addiction. Veterans dealing with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) or other mental illnesses may turn to drugs or alcohol as a coping mechanism or form of escape. Many veterans may be reluctant to seek treatment or unaware of the support resources available to them.
Mesothelioma Hope works to help veterans battling addiction understand all the resources available to help them, through the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) and other sources.
