1. I love the VA

They have tons experience dealing with vets and vet related issues that you just can't find in the civilian sector. The couple of times I sought treatment from a civilian psychiatrist for my PTSD, they flat out told me that I was too much for them to deal with. That being said where am I going to find 6 week long inpatient psychiatric programs for PTSD that focuses on combat vets outside of the VA?

Not to downplay anyone's trauma, but there is a difference in the PTSD a guy has after a year in Iraq and being in multiple firefights and dealing with death and carnage on a daily basis and the PTSD someone gets from being in a single automotive accident.
