An MD to help our Vets returning from combat - New approach that actually works



January 8, 2013
Since 2001, more US troops have died from suicide than have been killed in Afghanistan, and, according to US Army estimates, more than half a million more will suffer from post-traumatic stress.

James S. Gordon, MD., founder and director of the Center for Mind-Body Medicine and author of Unstuck: Your Guide to the Seven-Stage Journey Out of Depression has written a thought-provoking article regarding the failure of conventional means to adequately treat these beleagured veterans, suggesting a need for fundamental change. Read "A Practical Approach to Military PTSD" here.  http://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2012/12/a-practical-approach-to-military-ptsd/266088/
