Suicide is the silent killer claiming lives of soldiers...
Both in active duty and retired: Here are the alarming facts: The Most common causes are: Poor mental health screening and treatment, PTSD, Social stigma of mental health conditions, lack of health insurance, questionable drug therapy and an absence of counselling therapy. More soldiers from the UK and USA commit suicide than those who die in battle; the highest suicide rate is among those who served in Afghanistan. Here is the scary thing, most of these soldiers did not see combat.

There is A hidden enemy in the Psychiatric prescriptions given to soldiers...
According to the new documentary The Hidden Enemy: Inside Psychiatry’ s Covert Agenda, all evidence points in one direction: the soaring rates of psychiatric drugs prescribed since 2003. Known medication side effects of these drugs such as increased aggression and suicidal thinking are reflected in similar uptrends in the rates of military domestic violence, child abuse and sex crimes, as well as self-harm.... diagnoses of psychological disorders such as PTSD, personality disorder and social anxiety disorder are almost inevitably followed by the prescription of at least one psychiatric drug.
Psychiatrists know that their drugs do not actually cure anything, but merely mask symptoms. They are well aware of their many dangerous side effects, including possible addiction. However, they claim that the risks of the medication side effects are exceeded by their benefits. And while the soldier’ s real problem goes unaddressed, his health deteriorates.
