This is Scientific American's 60-Second Science. I'm Steve Mirsky . Got a minute ?
Nearly 20 percent of servicemen and women returning from Iraq and Afghanistan report symptoms of post-traumatic stress or major depression. Another 19 percent experience possible traumatic brain injury. Some seven percent may have a combination of brain injury and depression or PTSD. That’s according to a RAND Corporation study.
To address these issues, in 2007 the Department of Defense 2 created the Defense Centers of Excellence 3 for Psychological Health and Traumatic Brain Injury. The center’s director is Brigadier General Loree Sutton, a board certified 4 psychiatrist 5. The centers recently established a 24-hour toll-free hotline number, (866) 966-1020.
General Sutton calls the centers, “America’s open door to welcome and help every person dealing 6 with psychological health issues and traumatic brain injury.” The hotline is also available to family members, healthcare professionals, teachers and anyone else dealing with a service member who may be experiencing psychological issues. Because the real shame is not seeking help. (866) 966-1020.
