vietnam vets: after the vietnam war ended what were some mental issues you had to deal with?

Question by ErikaS: vietnam vets: after the vietnam war ended what were some mental issues you had to deal with?
I have a humanities report due about what were some physiological issues vets had to deal with upon coming home from the war. Such as suicide, drug addiction, alcohol addiction, or Post-traumatic Stress Disorder. I don’t know any vets and would really love to get the perspective from real vets. How were you treated by other people when you got home?

Tell me your story, please!

Don’t get your hopes up. You are asking strangers to open up their most painful secrets online for the world to see. If you want Nam veterans’ stories, talk to Nam veterans you know or go volunteer at your local VA Extended Care Facility.
