A Storm In Afghanistan: You May Already Have a Mental Disorder

You May Already Have a Mental Disorder

AFN currently has a nice ad in their "hot" rotation. As many of you may have read in your "news"papers, apparently there is concern that many of our new vets are susceptible to mental disorders. (Note: Entirely possible, and a valid concern, and something we should look out for.)

Now, the solution for this is...

Yes, all of us can now go to You May Already Have a Mental Disorder and see what we qualify for.

E has already tried several of the screenings, and found she qualifies for all she's tried, including alcoholism. Amazing, I never knew she was such a lush since she doesn't drink.

Sigh.

Seriously, mental disorders are no joking matter, and I urge anyone who even suspects they may have symptoms to seek help.
