What happens when PTSD comes home?
Today’s conversation is with Lissa Figgens, a veteran army ranger spouse and now a mom to an active duty service member. Lissa is a Time Management Coach and has built a business around helping women who feel pulled in all directions. But she reached out to us, because her heart is for military spouses. She asked if she could share her story about living with someone who struggled and sometimes still struggles with the effects of PTSD.
She shares about:
Not knowing that she was ever going to become a military wife
Not knowing where to go to get the resources
What she learned about
Four keys to helping a loved one who is dealing with mental health challenges
And what she and her husband are now doing to shine a light on mental wellness and suicide prevention
Lissa never thought mental health was going to impact her family. She thought she was gaining knowledge that she would eventually be able to use to help someone else, but it was her friends who ultimately supported her and helped her get the resources and tools she and her husband needed.
If you or someone you know is struggling with mental health issues, we encourage you to seek professional help and remember that you are not alone.
Better Together,
Christine
