A Support Group for Combat PTSD

By John M. Grohol, PsyD
Founder & Editor-in-Chief

In an effort to help soldiers returning home from active combat duty, we’ve recently begun a support group for people who’re dealing with combat PTSD and related issues. This independent support group is pseudonymous and open to all military members who want to exchange support and advice with others. (PTSD is posttraumatic stress disorder and affects many soldiers who’ve seen active combat duty.)

Please spread the word about this important resource. We hope members of the military find this combat PTSD forum helpful for their psychological needs.
