Addiction among veterans and active military personnel is a significant and growing concern, often stemming from the unique challenges faced during and after service. Many veterans grapple with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety, depression, and chronic pain, which can lead to reliance on substances like alcohol, prescription medications, or illicit drugs. The stress of deployment, combat experiences, and the transition back to civilian life can further compound these struggles.
At Silver Lining Recovery, we specialize in addiction treatment for veterans, addressing not only substance use disorders but also the mental health challenges that often accompany them. Our programs include evidence-based therapies like cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and holistic care, ensuring veterans receive comprehensive support to rebuild their lives.
If you or a loved one is searching for military addiction recovery, you are not alone. Silver Lining Recovery offers personalized care designed to meet your unique needs. Take the courageous first step today. Contact us to learn more and start your journey to healing.
Challenges Veterans and Active Military Face with Addiction
Veterans and active military personnel face unique challenges that significantly contribute to the development of substance use disorders.
- Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD): The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs reports that 11-20% of veterans who served in Iraq or Afghanistan experience PTSD annually. Trauma often leads to self-medication with alcohol or drugs to cope with intrusive thoughts and anxiety.
- Chronic pain and opioid use: Injuries sustained during service frequently result in chronic pain, and opioid prescriptions to manage this pain can lead to dependency. Veterans are twice as likely as civilians to die from opioid overdoses.
- Mental health struggles: Depression, anxiety, and survivor’s guilt are common among veterans, often worsening due to the stigma surrounding mental health in the military.
These challenges demand specialized care. At Silver Lining Recovery, we provide PTSD and addiction treatment programs tailored to veterans and active military, offering the tools needed to reclaim a healthier life.
Did You Know? Up to 1 in 3 veterans seeking treatment for substance abuse also have PTSD.
