A&E's 'Intervention' - Iraq Veteran with PTSD

A&E 'Intervention' Program Features Iraq Veteran with PTSD

A&E's Intervention program recently featured a segment on Brad, a young man coping with his PTSD by self-medicating with alcohol and marijuana after two Iraq tours with the 101st Airborne.

For those unfamiliar with the show, Intervention is a "series in which people confront their darkest demons and seek a route to redemption" by profiling "people whose dependence on drugs and alcohol or other compulsive behavior has brought them to a point of personal crisis and estranged them from their friends and loved ones." Brad's journey is a powerful and important episode.


Ilona Meagher of PTSD Combat: Winning the War Within blogspot has the program, in five YouTube Video's at her site, the title link!
