Alcohol and drug abuse facilities for Military Vets are central for the mental health and overall stability of Veterans of all branches of the military. Because alcohol and drug abuse and other mental health disorders are found at higher than average rates among Veterans, it is important that Veterans get the essential help they need due to such high suicide rates also associated with these disorders among our Vets.
Substance abuse programs for Vets in Portsmouth are available from the VA, with included services such as efforts to handle associated disorders such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, pain, disturbed sleep, irritability, and/or relationship problems which most commonly trigger addiction disorders among Veterans.
