POST-IRAQ STRESS DISORDER FOUND AT VIETNAM LEVELS
/Fort Bragg paratroopers coming back from serving in Iraq
suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder at almost the same rate as
Vietnam War veterans, according to a military survey. The numbers are
similar to those published in a New England Journal of Medicine study
that found that 16 percent of Iraq veterans reported symptoms of
post-traumatic stress disorder, major depression or severe anxiety.
Crowds, stoplights or even Wal-Mart shopping bags can trigger
anxiety. The Wal-Mart bags resemble those used by insurgents in
Iraq to hide roadside bombs. [more
