This topic hits on a personal level as it deals with vets and increasing divorce rates. A lot of returning soldiers come back with PTSD, and despite an excellent effort on the part of our military to beef of psychiatric services, many soldiers are going undiagnosed and untreated. The idea that men are supposed to "be men and get over it" runs deep in our culture and we are not raised how to behave and react to trauma that won't go away. Fort Hood recently opened a stress reduction center that includes acupuncture to help both soldier and family beep body and mind together. Can you say "government contract?"
