In this episode we will be talking about suicide and other topics that might trigger some listeners.
Anything you hear in this episode should not be considered medical advice. If you are currently in crisis and need help please stop this podcast and call The Suicide Prevention Line by dialing 988, if you are a veteran please select option 1.
Our veterans are at a 57% higher risk than those who haven’t served.
Since 2003 the US has experienced a total of 7,075 deaths in combat, that’s both forward deployed military and civilian sectors of the DOD.
During that same time, 125,000 veterans have died by their own hand and that’s just counting the military veterans, not the civilians part of combat units. Suicide is the 2nd leading cause of death for Veterans under the age of 45.
The easily digestible statistic of 22 veterans a day are lost to suicide is all over social media, in the news, podcasts all over and with good reason. The VA statistics show that the crisis is getting better, but an outside analysis of the same data might suggest the crisis is actually getting worse when you count drug overdoses and unexplained deaths.
Today we meet Matt Greiner, a veteran of the Navy and Coast Guard and the founder of The 22 Peaks Project.
