The psychological and physical repercussions of military service can be long lasting, and many vets in Arizona need intensive drug and alcohol rehabilitation after they've been discharged. The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) notes that alcohol use is higher among members of the military than among civilians.
In 2008, 20% of military personnel reported binge drinking every week in the past month while the rate for those who had high combat exposure was even higher at 27%. Prescription drug abuse has also increased among members of the Armed Forces and is higher among military personnel than among civilians.
The VA isn't just concerned with helping military personnel fight addiction. VA treatment also addresses the potential contributing factors for alcohol and drug abuse, such as:
The physical and mental stresses of serving in the armed forces may contribute to an increased incidence of substance use disorders (SUDs) amongst veterans (relative to the general population). Physical injuries, combat exposure, psychological trauma, and prolonged separation from loved ones take a severe toll on the body and mind.
The United States Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) provides both short-term and long-term solutions for veterans of the Navy, Army, Marines, and Air Force. If you're a veteran seeking recovery, or you're close to a vet who needs treatment, mental health professionals and addiction treatment specialists can provide:

Veterans seeking treatment for substance misuse can start the process by talking with their primary VA healthcare provider, contacting their nearest veteran center, or calling the VA's general information hotline. The rehab services range from:
The Drug Policy Alliance Report urges government agencies to initiate overdose prevention programs for veterans and extend access to medication therapy for drug addiction. Methadone and buprenorphine are two of the most widely prescribed medications for reducing the cravings and withdrawal symptoms that can interfere with recovery from opioid addiction.
As a veteran addicted to drugs, it is important that you get help as fast as possible. Any of the many rehab centers in Arizona will be happy to take your case on.
