The 9/11
Throughout the deployment, troops are monitored to see if any depressive symptoms arise. Many active-duty members may gain depressive symptoms throughout the deployment, especially when they are participants in combat environments. Depression and PTSD can also be co-existent with lack of sleep, these are all linked with combat stressors. PTSD
Post-traumatic stress disorder has many symptoms such as anxiety, avoidance, depressive moods, and physical health issues. Many active members would gain PTSD when they experienced combat events such as witnessing destruction (homes/villages being destroyed), fire attacks (artillery rocker fire, small arms fire), seeing human remains, and being ambushed. Active-duty members also recall disturbing memories and images that cause physical reactions (such as heart palpitations and trouble breathing) when they are reminded of a straining experience. These traumatizing combat events cause the deployed to have PTSD symptoms along with worsened deployment attitudes and sleep. Injury
A soldier's health consequences with major military engagement. Many deployed soldiers will be deployed in stressful combat zones which can cause bodily injury and ill health. Many deployed soldiers during the U.S. Civil War fell to health problems such as irritable hearts and nostalgia. An irritable heart is described as shortness of breath, heart palpitations, headaches, diarrhea, dizziness, and sleep disturbances. Nostalgia was classified as soldiers who would have a loss of appetite, diarrhea, and chronic fever. Many retired soldiers experience traumatic brain injury from combat environments.
military families during deployment
''
Family support may be important for soldiers while on deployment. It can help the deployed soldiers to reduce strains and have a more positive deployment attitude/experience. Not only are the deployed soldiers influenced, but their families and children are also affected. Family involvement during deployment
While the active member in the military is away on deployment it is important for them to have support from their family. The soldiers' lives back home can directly impact how their experience during deployment will be. Dealing with combat stress as well as family-related issues (poor communication, financial issues, and unstable support) increases the chances of the soldier experiencing PTSD, depression, and sleep disturbances. Children are just as involved as the deployed and the spouse. Parents who deal with less stress can help their children have a more positive experience throughout the military deployment. Emotional support is crucial for the child as it can influence the child's behavior. One way to help the family to have involvement during the deployment can include writing letters and postcards. Keeping strong communication can resolve stress and have a higher chance of a positive experience for all involved.
