Importance of charities for veterans' mental health
Rock to Recovery and similar charities are crucial for ensuring veterans do not feel like they have run out of options and arrive at the point of suicide due to experiencing a significant decrease in adrenaline and other high-pressure factors after leaving the military. They can suffer post-trauma as a result of high-pressure situations like those experienced in Afghanistan and Iraq, but the lack of support for veterans after leaving the military is a problem.
