PTSD Worldwide

Founded in 2009, PTSD Worldwide is non-profit organization comprised of veteran volunteers who are committed to guiding our nation's soldiers on their path to living a productive and fulfilling life after combat. PTSD Worldwide signature characteristic is its combat veteran volunteers who mentor, advise and assist other veterans suffering from post traumatic stress (PTSD).

PTSD Worldwide assists veterans in a number of ways. First, it provides a forum, or safe zone, called the Safe Soldier Zone Program. Veterans come together and share their combat and post combat experiences with other veterans. They also exchange dialogue directly with those who share common challenges and can offer assistance in coping with the adjustment to peaceful society. Furthermore, with the encouragement of their peers, combat veterans are assured that it is indeed normal and suitable to seek further counselling if necessary. PTSD Worldwide is one of the best tools at helping combat veterans overcome the stigma within the military of seeking help in coping with post traumatic stress.

Second, PTSD Worldwide serves as an advocacy organization which draws attention and awareness to combat veterans suffering from post traumatic stress. PTSD Worldwide not only reaches out to other veterans, but to public officials, government representatives and the public at large. We have a very close link with our marine friends who fought alongside us in all conflicts there Organisation also does such a great rewarding job call ACVOW Our doors are open for any veteran seeking help.

I'm happy and sad

Compassionate and bad

Can't sleep at night

Can't do anything right

I want to be alone

But not on my own

I'm in love but I hate

I'm a burden on the state

I'm possessed by the war

I killed what for?

I see shrinks

I see doc's

Remember my arctic socks

I'm disloyal cause I'm ill

Is it right to kill

I can hide in a crowd

My face a grey shroud

I cry for no reason

My country shouts treason

All the pills and the booze

Make bad memories ooze

I was 19 in June

Under a bright crystal moon

I died that day

But I'm still here to say

For the brave and the free

My award PTSD.
