IAVA Executive Director Paul Rieckhoff talks about the stress soldiers face when deployed, and the problems they encounter when they return.
I am a Marine veteran who has returned to college to take up where I left off years ago. I am still an undergraduate who is studying in the field of Psychology. I have returned to help veterans who suffer from PTSD, because they are not forgotten. For those that are coming in from the cold, I want to help them if I can. I intend to provide resources and links for those who may not know that there is information out there or where to go. Family members who have members who suffer from PTSD are welcome.
There is a separate group that I have set up that is strictly for Veterans who do not wish to go outside of a veteran community. If you wish to join that please either IM me or send me an e-mail and I will add you to the group.
Any disruptive behavior that cannot be resolved will result in the member being asked to leave. If it cannot be resolved then the member will be deleted.
I am becoming increasing aware of the diverse culture that exists here on MySpace. The people who now grace my friends list with their presence do me honor for adding me. I was one of those who thought that My Space was populated simply by a younger generation. But I have found many a gifted and creative people, of all ages, it simply amazes me. And they bring out a part of me that few have seen, and that is a good thing. I just wanted to say thanks to those that have welcomed me, and here is to the future.

One voice no longer silent on PTSD. I am not anti-military but anti-excuse to use their loyalty and anti-turning our backs on them when they are veterans needing us. Where are you when they need you? Click here to view

Your life philosophy: “It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement; and who, at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.”
Theodore Roosevelt (Paris Sorbonne,1910)
