Substance abuse facilities for Veterans are central for the mental well-being and overall stability of Vets of all branches of the armed forces. Because drug and alcohol abuse and other mental health disorders are experienced at higher than average rates among Vets, it is important that they get the essential assistance they need because of such high rates of suicide also associated with these disorders among our Vets.
Drug and alcohol abuse programs for Vets in Newbury are available through the VA, with included services such as measures to address associated problems such as relationship problems, irritability, disturbed sleep, pain, depression, and/or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) which most commonly trigger substance abuse disorders among Veterans.
