Night terrors in veterans are a serious, often overlooked issue that can contribute to physical violence. These terrifying experiences highlight the long-term effects of trauma and its impact on personal and professional lives.

Be sure to check on a veteran, first responder, friend, neighbor or someone who may be struggling with their demons. Not all demons or battles are visible or can be seen. Today on National Suicide Awareness Day we are honoring and thinking of those who have lost their battle and are continuing to fight their demons. Struggling? Let’s talk about it. It’s okay to not be okay. #SAVE22 #suicideawarenessmonth
