This #PTSDAwarenessMonth, we're recognizing the compassion of military and veteran caregivers and the importance of ensuring they have the resources, support, and community they deserve. Because when caregivers are supported, veterans are supported too.

“Everyone who experiences trauma develops PTSD." ❌ This is one of the most common myths surrounding PTSD, and one of the most important to debunk. Most of people who experience trauma recover naturally. They process what happened, lean on support systems, and heal over time.
