Substance abuse programs for Military Vets are central for the mental health and overall stability of Vets of all branches of the armed forces. Because alcohol and drug abuse and other mental health disorders are experienced at higher than average rates among Vets, it is crucial that Veterans get the essential help they need due to such high suicide rates also associated with these disorders with our Vets.
Alcohol and drug abuse programs for Veterans in Shreveport are available through the VA, with included services such as programs to handle 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 Vets.
