Readjustment to civilian life can be challenging and feel chaotic when no one has rank with defined roles and systems. Open conversation about your experiences as someone that is active duty, a veteran, or as a family member of someone that has served, can help you gain insight, improve mood and reduce stressors. Within your service you may have experienced combat, international travel, long deployments, dangerous situations and traumatic experiences.
