To every veteran carrying the weight of memories that never quite fade, this is for you.
PTSD is not a weakness. It’s a response to surviving what few can imagine. You faced the unimaginable, and now you face the aftershocks that come without warning. The anxiety, the sleepless nights, the triggers, it’s real, and it matters.
But so do you.
You are not alone in this fight. There is no shame in struggling, and no shame in seeking help. Healing doesn’t mean forgetting, it means learning to breathe again, to live again, one day at a time. You are not broken beyond repair. There is healing, hope, and purpose ahead. Whether you whisper a prayer or cry out in silence, know that you are seen, loved, and carried by grace.
Today, on National PTSD Awareness Day, we honor your service. We recognize your pain and we stand beside you, not just today, but every day. Thank you for your sacrifice. Your courage continues, and so does our support.
